“A picture of a field can be simply a picture of a field; its significance can only be materialized by human experience.” – Tim Cresswell
Can we truly represent a place? Scores of artists, both professional and amateur, continuously attempt to answer this question. While many succeed, with our rapidly changing landscape and the overflow of natural imagery, one could argue that the significance of place has dissolved over the years. Yet landscape is closely linked to our notions of identity, history, cultural and personal memory and experience, and the artists in this exhibition capture place in new ways that reference what we once thought and still think the American landscape (truly) is.
