Kimball Art Center: Under Construction

See the captivating historical images of Lewis Baltz’s Park City series alongside the work of contemporary artist Rodrigo Valenzuela, who explores issues of labor, alienation and displacement. Throughout the 1970s, Lewis Baltz captured the changing landscape he observed throughout different parts of the American West. Kimball Art Center will present the historical images of Lewis Baltz (1945-2014) from his celebrated Park City (1980) series, comprised of 102 photographs taken from 1978 to 1979 in a then- developing section of the city. Complementing Baltz’s captivating images will be photographs and installations by contemporary artist Rodrigo Valenzuela (b. 1982, Chile) who, taking inspiration from Baltz‘s work, similarly captures our built landscape while also exploring issues of labor, alienation and displacement.
