Bale Creek Allen: My America Exhibition Catalog with essay by Patrick Kelly. Allen’s My America likely incubated during childhood trips he and his family routinely made between Texas and California. Prior to handheld devices that help pass the endless hours in a car, children had no alternative than to contemplate the slowly evolving landscapes as they anticipated landmarks or created games based on objects they encountered. Allen absorbed, and stored for future use in his work, the strangeness of the seemingly “normal” and banal on these trips.
