Linda Connor and David Maisel
Museum Exhibition

Inspired by the work of American author Barry Lopez (1945–2020), From Here to the Horizon: Photographs in Honor of Barry Lopez explores our connection to the land through photography. The exhibition brings together more than ninety photographs by fifty artists, offering a sweeping portrait of the diverse landscapes that shape our lives and imaginations. From badlands and sandhills to old-growth forests and slot canyons, from the New England coast to the Great Lakes, the photographs evoke the distinctive character of American topography—at once quotidian and mythic, welcoming and forbidding.

 

Collectively, From Here to the Horizon explores the power of place and the ways photographs help us see, understand, and re-connect with the land. While recent photographic traditions have often centered on the human-altered landscape, these photographers also embrace the lyricism, elegance, and resilience of the natural world itself. Their images trace a collective geography of home, memory, and imagination. Works by photographers Linda Connor and David Maisel will be included in the exhibition.
