Dana Fritz: Field Guide to a Hybrid Landscape (video)

Event announcement. Join Dana Fritz, Hixson-Lied Professor of Art, Art History and Design, for an important reflection on how humans make, shape, and understand landscapes. Like a virtual fieldtrip to the Nebraska Sandhills, but through the lens of the most thoughtful and introspective of guides, visual artist Fritz will discuss and share photographs from her new book, “Field Guide to a Hybrid Landscape.” The book examines, in provocative ways, the unique hand-planted forest of the Bessey Ranger District and now includes some of the last images captured before the 2022 wildfires near Halsey. Event on February 21, 2024, at 4pm at the University of Nebraska College of Law.
