Abstract

Catalogue of the first major traveling retrospective devoted to Dutch photographer Dana Lixenberg. Spanning more than three decades, American Images presents a nuanced exploration of contemporary American society through Lixenberg's editorial portraits, and a selection of her most significant projects. From the emblematic Imperial Courts, initiated in the aftermath of the 1992 Watts uprising, to her portraits made in Jeffersonville (Indiana) and Shishmaref (Alaska), Lixenberg captures the essence of humanity across diverse and complex contexts. Her images transcend mere appearance; they tell stories of inequality, identity, and resilience.--Provided by publisher
