American Horizons: The Photographs of Art Sinsabaugh

An unjustly under-recognized artist, this exhibition underscores Sinsabaugh’s artistic and historical significance.

Best known for his “Midwest Landscapes” of the early 1960s, his “Chicago Landscapes” (1964-66), and his “American Landscapes” (1969-83), Sinsabaugh used a huge 12×20-inch view camera to make photographs of unprecedented subtlety and originality.

Given the rarity of his work, it is notable this exhibition was assembled solely from the holdings of the Indiana University Art Museum and the Hallmark Photographic Collection.

The Indiana University Art Museum has created a dedicated online resource regarding Art Sinsabaugh, this exhibition and the archive of his work held at the Indiana museum.
