Journey West: Danny Lyon features the photographer’s lifelong exploration of the people, places, land, and history of the West. His connection to New Mexico is embedded in a decades-long interaction with his community in Bernalillo. His new photographs capture the state’s diverse landscapes and raise awareness of fires, drought, and climate change. The Exhibition also includes iconic images from Lyon’s series on the Civil Rights Movement, the Chicago Outlaw Motorcycle Club, the Texas Prison System, protests, sensitives portraits of individuals from around the world, and more. The exhibition features a selection of 175 photographs, films, and montages spanning Lyon’s 60-year career.
