Nate Larson: New American Landscape

The University of Louisville Hite Art Institute announces the opening of Nate Larson: New American Landscapes in Gallery X on Belknap Campus.

New American Landscapes is a series of color photographs taken while traveling. Struck by the patterns and easy repetition of travel and tourism, the photographs are meditations on the man-altered American landscape and seek an un-monumental understanding of the human experience within it. The landscape is a palimpsest, etched with stories upon stories, encoding the mythologies that we create for ourselves about contemporary life in the United States.

Nate Larson is a contemporary artist working with photographic media, artist books and digital video. His projects have been widely shown across the US and internationally as well as featured in numerous publications and media outlets, including Wired Raw File, The Picture Show from NPR, Hyperallergic, Gizmodo, Vice Magazine, the New York Times Lens Blog, Utne Reader, Hotshoe Magazine, Flavorwire, the BBC News Viewfinder, Frieze Magazine, the British Journal of Photography, Marketplace Tech Report, The Washington Post, and Art Papers. His artwork is included in the collections of the Orlando Museum of Art, Portland Art Museum, the Museum of Fine Arts Houston, the Center for Photography at Woodstock, and the Museum of Contemporary Photography Chicago. Larson holds a full-time academic appointment in the photography department at Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore and chaired the 2014 national conference of the Society for Photographic Education

The exhibition will run through Oct. 25.
