Joan Myers Western Power
August 22, 2009 - December 6, 2009
Theater: Gallery
Photographer Joan Myers recognizes that as consumers we often take the source of our power supply for granted, paying little attention to how energy is generated and distributed. In her series of panoramic photographs, Western Power, Myers makes visible a range of power plants-fueled by uranium, oil, gas, coal, water, solar, wind, and geothermal energy-throughout the Western United States. The photographs in this exhibition are a part of the Nevada Museum of Art, The Altered Landscape, Carol Franc Buck collection.
