Title: Escape to Reality
Description: In these visual, historical, and analytical historical essays of an all-too-frequently overlooked artist, Gibbs begins with an account of the Dixon collection at Brigham Young University, then explores the reality, ideology, and abstraction at work in Maynard Dixon's images of Native Americans and the western landscape. In the final essay, photo historian Deborah Brown Rasiel grapples with the complex artistic influences at play between Dixon and his second wife, photographer Dorothea Lange.
