    Eyes on the Collection: The Complexity of Landscape

     
    Online Presentation
    Summer 2020
    Curated by Sage Lakota Gray, Collections Assistant

    Recently, most likely due to feeling slightly cut off from the outside world, I have been thinking about landscapes quite a lot. I tend to consider landscapes to be a clear-cut mimetic representation of nature, while often overlooking its larger relationship to humanity: from how we often desire to capture a sliver of the outside and hang it on our walls, to how we seek to mediate the representation of land, or how we to transform the land itself. The works in this online presentation are drawn from the Henry Collection.
