Synopsis

As society becomes more mobile and disjointed, regional differences and local character disappear. Americans are losing their sense of place and their connections to the local. This book shows how artists can create new understandings about land, history, culture and place. Lippard examines how artists such as Ansel, Adams, and Carrie Mae Weems depict place in landscape painting and photography, and how "nature" and landscape are reflected in films.
