Omschrijving

Warren Neidlich’s black-and-white photographs are arranged in four parts. In the first, he restages and photographs some of American history’s most important but unphotographed events, including the relocation of Japanese-Americans to internment camps and the granting of the right to vote to freed slaves. In the next, he photographs recreated historical theme parks and villages. The third sees his use of antique photographic processes to photograph restagings of historical events. Finally, turning his attention to film, he photographs depictions of Native Americans in Hollywood cinema. The photographs are accompanied by critical essays.
