"In his critically acclaimed series documenting the temporary encampments of the homeless in Los Angeles, Landscapes for the Homeless (1988-1991), Hernandez eschews direct portraiture, focusing instead on the traces of this precarious form of existence; items of clothing, bedding, and crudely crafted furniture.
Born in Los Angeles in 1947, Anthony Hernandez lives and works in Los Angeles and Challis, Idaho. His work has been exhibited at numerous institutions, including San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles; Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; Los Angeles County Museum of Art; the Amon Carter Museum of American Art, Fort Worth and many more."
