Imagined here is the Trump-branded America, promised as a return to some idea of greatness of the past. A ‘continuous monument’ contrived from one of his signature projects, the 24-karat-gold-infused glass tower, is envisioned as a wall inserted into a collection of images by US artists reflecting on the American landscape and its cultural identity. We ask how Trump’s vision might accomplish its stated goal and what that greatness might refer to, in a way of obstructing these landscapes and creating fake views.
