Gladstone Gallery is presenting Shirin Neshat’s “Land of Dreams," a two-channel film installation and a series of more than one hundred photographs created entirely in New Mexico during 2019. Presented in its entirety for the first time, the body of work represents a shift in Neshat’s practice, turning her lens on the people and landscapes of the American West. Captured in black-and-white, the photographic series features an installation of 111 images, depicting New Mexico residents. The artist asks the individuals about their dreams, often recording them along with their name, date, and place of birth on the photos in Farsi calligraphy. Executed with clean backdrops and no props, Neshat has also included ornate drawings specific to the subjects’ dreams.
