"Out of Site explores the invisible landscapes of the American West through the interwoven forces of art and technology over the past 170 years. This interdisciplinary project features an array of visual media, including historical, modern, and contemporary photography, that punctuates a series of essays by art scholars alongside first-person perspectives from artists working "in the field" today.
