Earth in Peril
Epic and flamboyant scenes of the American landscape with a particular focus on the West.

Featuring David Benjamin Sherry
Curated by Jesse Bandler Firestone

With an unrelenting reverence for the natural world, David Benjamin Sherry photographs epic scenes of the American landscape with a particular focus on the West, highlighting its beauty while hinting at its precarious future. Showcasing a selection of color, monochromatic and black-and-white photographs made over the past 12 years, Earth in Peril highlights Sherry’s technical skills, sensitive eye and queer perspective that set his landscape photography apart from his predecessors and contemporaries.
