description
Well known during her lifetime, Susie Barstow (1836–1922) was widely celebrated and exhibited alongside Hudson River School artists Asher B. Durand and Albert Bierstadt but was later erased from American art history. It further explores how artists working today complicate and challenge landscape through multi-disciplinary artistic practices and diverse viewpoints. Featured contemporary artists include Teresita Fernández, Marie Lorenz, Tanya Marcuse, Mary Mattingly, Ebony G. Patterson, Anna Plesset, Wendy Red Star, Jaune Quick-to-See Smith, Cecilia Vicuña, Kay Walking- Stick, and Saya Woolfalk. The book includes new research, original essays by the curators, and texts and plates by the artists.

In gewohnter Qualität bietet der Band noch viel mehr als eine Retrospektive zu einer Künstlerin. // In its usual quality, the volume offers much more than a retrospective of an artist.
