Dallas: William Greiner

Preview

Dallas, Texas, November 22, 1963. At 12:30: the assassination of John Fitzgerald Kennedy, the president who had made it America’s goal to put a man on the moon. His lofty dreams and and commitment to racial desegregation had drawn crowds on the campaign trail. Although they weren’t won over by his politics, the warm welcome the president received surprised even the wife of the governor of Texas. By retracing the route JFK took from the airport at Love Field, William Greiner is committing an act of catharsis—not only for him, a Southerner from Louisiana, but also for the city of Dallas. There’s something intriguing about these empty intersections, the approach of those fateful tunnels and emergency signs—something isn’t right. We see a baby’s bottle abandoned on a post. It’s a cruel metaphor.
