Le [Palm Springs Art Museum](http://www.psmuseum.org/index.php?ref=apar.tv) propose une plongée (et c’est le cas de la dire) dans nos fantasmes de bonheur consumériste avec *Backyard Oasis: The Swimming Pool in Southern California Photography, 1945 – 1982*. La piscine est un fantasme, un ancien eldorado aujourd’hui démocratisé, mais au pays du soleil et de la consommation, la Californie du Sud, ce petit bout de mer personnel a longtemps été un baromètre social et intime du bonheur et de la réussite.  
Et pendant cette période si particulière de l’histoire, 1945-1982, soit en pleine Guerre Froide, la recherche du bonheur individuel était lourde de sens, au point de faire de la piscine une représentation iconographique. Un petit coin de paradis dans son arrière cour.
