ART:
You may think you could take photos like these. At first glance, Lee Friedlander’s on-the-road pictures—192 of which are on view at the Whitney in Lee Friedlander: America by Car—seem so casual as to be throwaway snapshots. But keep looking, and you’ll see how the molded-plastic dashboards, the swoopy window pillars, and especially the images appearing in the mirrors all reshape the landscape they frame. The result is no more accidental than a Jackson Pollock drip painting and as deceptively difficult to create. — Christopher Bonanos (NYMAG)
