Spanning more than three decades, ‘American Images’ presents a nuanced exploration of contemporary American society through photographer Dana Lixenberg’s editorial portraits, plus a selection of her most significant projects. From the emblematic Imperial Courts, initiated in the aftermath of the 1992 Watts uprising, to her portraits in Jeffersonville (Indiana) and Shishmaref (Alaska), Lixenberg captures the essence of humanity across diverse and complex contexts. Her images transcend mere appearance; they tell stories of inequality, identity, and resilience. The book is co-published with Fundación MAPFRE and includes essays by curators Laurie Hurwitz and Marcel Feil.
