Landscapes and History
Mandeville gallery, UCSD 1997
The installation presented a succession of landscape color photographs that recalled certain historical moments from anecdotal histories, with people or event to a conceptual concept of history evoked by the disparity between size and content.
From left to right and top to bottom:
A storm over the Grand Canyon, when a young couple think only of themselves and are impervious to the storm.
The same storm is an object of metaphysical reverie for a middle age man.
Two stormy skies in Montana, the Big Sky country, are side by side.
Three photographs are organized vertically. They were taken by going north and south and north again, from South Pass, a lake in Colorado West of the Rockies and a ghost town near South Pass with few houses as it was in 1986 when the shots were taken.
Dark sky at sunset somewhere in Utah.
Driving along in Arizona shooting photographs from moving the car.
A small hill in the Mojave Desert.
