The New Mexico Portfolioprinted 1976

Not on view
Sepia-toned photograph of a desert landscape with two white lines scratched across the surface forming a large X, a road in the foreground, earthen mounds, and distant mountains
Silkscreen print in black and white, grid of repeated photographic images showing men in mid-20th-century suits and hats, many with faces obscured or bleached out, creating an uneven, degraded repetition across four rows.
Gelatin silver print of two nude figures standing outdoors beside a weathered wooden shed with anatomical skeleton diagrams posted on its side; the figure in front cradles a pregnant abdomen; rocky hillside, a tree, and cloudy sky in the background.
Gelatin silver print of a figure crouched behind a large sprawling houseplant on a reflective floor, flanked by two tall ornate candlesticks, with a bright window centered in the background.
Screenprint in warm beige and white tones, two masked figures on horseback in an outdoor landscape, the foreground horse rendered in high-contrast white with the image source appearing photographic, edges fading into an unprinted background.
Gelatin silver print of a woman with bottle caps over her eyes and windswept hair, beside a shaggy dog with open mouth, shot at close range outdoors; bare branches and a distant figure visible in background.
Gelatin silver print of a street scene; a toddler in a white jacket stands between two parked cars near a large tree trunk, while a man holding a book stands on the sidewalk behind.
Gelatin silver print of a ruined adobe mission church with a bell tower facade, small crosses visible among stone walls, and a freestanding wooden door in the foreground, beneath billowing cumulus clouds.
Black and white photograph of a woman with long flowing white hair reclining on a wooden bench outdoors, wearing a patterned dress and heeled shoes, against a stucco wall with cloudy sky above.
Charcoal or ink drawing with heavily worked abstract composition; jagged, fragmented forms in white and gray emerge from a deep black ground, creating a dense, textured surface suggesting fractured rock or crumpled material.
Gelatin silver print, full-length figure of a woman seated on a wooden floor wearing only a decorative bra, arms spread to each side resting on a low surface with rumpled fabric, shot from a low angle with high-contrast dramatic lighting against a dark background.
Gelatin silver contact sheet with 24 frames arranged in four rows, showing a dog and human figure in silhouette against a bright shoreline, capturing sequential motion of the dog leaping, rearing, and running on a rocky beach.
Gelatin silver print of a man leaning out of a small open window in a rough vertical-board wooden structure, looking to the side, with garden plants and conifers visible in the background.
Black and white portrait photograph of a woman standing against a plain wall, wearing a plaid pantsuit with wide lapels over a collared shirt, one hand resting on a metal railing, with window light casting diagonal shadows at upper left.
Gelatin silver print diptych, panoramic format; a large painted mural of a face's eyes and decorative arched patterns fills the frame, with ghostly double-exposed or reflected figures of people and windows superimposed over the composition in deep black and grey tones.
Gelatin silver print portrait of an elderly woman standing against a wall, wearing a cardigan and patterned blouse. Behind her, a framed religious image of the Virgin Mary decorated with small photographs, flanked by two crucifixes.
Black and white circular photographic print with a repeated pattern of an inverted male face filling the dark disc, high-contrast lighting against deep black background.
Gelatin silver print of two figures from behind on a lawn; one in a dark suit, one in a light dress holding a parasol with embroidered detail that obscures their head, cropped at mid-torso level.
Black and white photograph, a young man in a worn corduroy jacket stands leaning against the front grille of a vintage American automobile, facing the camera directly, hands at his sides.
Color photograph of a woman holding a large green leaf over her face, with one eye and red lips visible; surrounding foliage rendered in muted sepia tones contrasts with the vivid green leaf and pink-painted fingernails.
Gelatin silver print, heavily worn with dark vignetting at edges. A young child in a light-colored dress and bonnet stands outdoors, holding a leash attached to a small dark animal. A wooden fence and sparse grass visible in the background.
