AMERICAN PLACES

Mount Rushmore. Gettysburg. Manzanar. Plymouth Rock. In Palacio’s American Places these sites, so closely linked to the collective and complex legacy we inherit as Americans, are paired with monumental images of what seems familiar and relatively invisible. Originally from Colombia, Palacio brings an outsider’s perspective to his keenly observed America, and we discover a landscape both expansive and contained, delimited and unbounded.
