Spanning more than three decades, the exhibition brings together a committed and deeply human body of work, weaving a multilayered portrait of the United States in which celebrities and lesser-known individuals are approached with equal care and portrayed with dignity.
Born in Amsterdam, Lixenberg sees the United States through the fresh, discerning eyes of a foreigner, offering a nuanced perspective on the myth of the American Dream. After arriving in New York in 1989, Dana Lixenberg began to develop a photographic language grounded in empathy, mutual trust, and attentive engagement. In doing so, her portraits offer a counter-narrative to prevailing media representations of America, a perspective that remains deeply relevant today.
