"In the late 1970s, Allen Dutton bought an 8 x 10-inch view camera and began to systematically photograph the state of Arizona, from desert to mountain, from suburb to city. The extraordinary body of work he has created in the intervening years ranks among the most unusual and interesting documents of America's heartland. Comprising thousands of images taken over 20 years, Dutton's project offers a poignant chronicle of the growing American West and reflects changing attitudes toward the natural world. Organized by independent curator Jane Livingston, Strange But True : The Arizona Photographs of Allen Dutton features 76 examples of this work and is on view at the Corcoran Gallery of Art through November 13, 2000"--Tfaoi.com.
