Description:Staple fold binding; color offset printed booklet, printed in conjunction with an exhibition of the artist's work at Pomona College Museum of Art, held from September 10-October 22, 2006. "The exhibition includes new photographs from three related bodies of work, all connected through Gonzalez-Day's investigations into the representation of, and more significantly, the absence of representations of Latinos in the documented history of the American West. For the past five years, Gonzalez-Day has explored, with a variety of strategies, the history of lynching in California."--Foreword. The rear cover of this booklet is comprised of three detachable "Erased Lynching" photo postcards.
