The Open Road: Photography and the American Road Trip

 Jepson Center
The road trip is an enduring symbol in American culture. The road stretching over the horizon represents a sense of possibility and freedom, discovery and escape—a place to get lost and find yourself in the process. As photographers have embarked on trips across the United States with the express purpose of making work, they have created some of the most important photographs in the history of the medium.
