    Assertive, controversial, and graphically striking, the works in the exhibition In the American West: Photographs by Richard Avedon attracted overflow crowds and widespread media acclaim when they were first shown in 1985. Avedon's oversize images of working-class Westerners continue to generate heated debate and are classics in the history of photography. This national touring show, presented on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the initial exhibition, provides the opportunity to reexamine this compelling group of photographs and to explore the realities and myths of the American West.
