REVIEW: Lucas Foglia at Michael Hoppen Gallery

Rachel Holmes, The Metropolist, April 25, 2014

Exhibiting at Michael Hoppen Contemporary until 10th May, Lucas Foglia’s Frontcountry is a breath of fresh air. Shot over several years in the scarcely populated states of Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, Texas and Wyoming, Foglia’s photos present noble mythologies of the Great American West. Horses rear against a skyline of rolling mountains, mammoth clouds hover over vast plains as cowboys mill about in an ordinary wilderness.
