First edition of Tin Lizards by Robert LeBlanc (2025) Hardcover, Custom Acrylic Engraved Slipcase, 11.5x13 inches, 180 pages, 90 duotone plates. About Immersed in a monochromatic landscape of surrealism, Tin Lizards is a testament to the enduring allure of train travel. Each location featured was reached by train, departing from Robert LeBlanc's home base in Los Angeles. As the rhythmic clatter of steel on steel propels LeBlanc forward, he captures the essence of exploration and discovery, weaving a captivating tapestry of photographs from the places he encounters, showcasing the delicate balance between stillness and movement. Tin Lizards is a harmonious collaboration between artistic vision and wanderlust. In this world of monochromatic surrealism, dreams collide with reality, as memories are etched in silver halides, and the world becomes a canvas for contemplation and wonder. From the solitude of his sleeper car to the enchanting hush of small towns and the bustling energy of major cities, LeBlanc adeptly frames these diverse landscapes with an artistic eye that finds beauty in even the quietest moments. This body of work invites us to embark on a poignant voyage, one where the soul of the country reveals itself through the gentle embrace of train travel.Presented in collaboration with Carhartt Work In Progress, Tin Lizards is printed on silver art paper, its edges bathed in crimson and encased within a crafted acrylic vessel. This inaugural edition is limited to 600 copies and launched in tandem with a co-exhibition with Carhartt WIP and Fahey/Klein Gallery. A set of 20 special editions accompanies the release, each pairing the volume with archival prints and housed in a hand-numbered acrylic box.
