| A TALE OF TWO CITIES: Eugene Atget’s Paris and Berenice Abbott’s New York |
|||
 |
March 2 – May 2, 2012 More than an exhibition of architectural photography, this show examines the work of two artists who were inextricably linked to each other and to the development of modern photography. Eugene Atget turned to photography after a career of acting on the stage and an earlier stint as a commercial seaman. Berenice Abbott met Atget in 1925 when she was working as a darkroom assistant to Man Ray. Abbott was deeply and permanently affected by Atget’s images, saying later that there was a sudden flash of recognition...MORE Image to the left: Untitled, (Along the Seine), c. 1921-1926 © Eugene Atget |

| [hyphen]-AMERICANS: CONTEMPORARY TINTYPE PORTRAITS KELIY ANDERSON-STALEY |
|||
 |
March 2 – May 2, 2012 These are portraits of contemporary Americans, but each one is made as a unique and un-reproducible tintype image using a technology and a technique from the middle of the nineteenth century. These subjects appear as if they have been transported from an earlier and more serious time when the making of an image was a slow, difficult and rare event; when the image was a landmark in the sitter’s life and one of very few images that might ever be made of that person in their life. In our modern society the ubiquity of images, camera phones and the digital “availability” of innumerable images has inured most of us to this potential “presence” that an image of others; or even of ourselves might possess. We have suspended our wonder. The long exposures necessary to make these collodion images create a very different kind of photographic event to the spontaneous “snapshot” aesthetic to which we have now become so accustomed....MORE Image to the left: Helen, 2009 © Keliy Anderson-Staley |
