Lorna Mills “…Lorna Mills is an artist who revels in the irreverent excesses of GIF culture, collecting and manipulating found GIFs from the most offensive and profane to the most abject and mundane. In her original GIF work, however, she creates contemplative animations that, unlike most other art GIFs, can be emotionally affecting. While Mills […]

Joe McKay Work from his oeuvre. “… Operating at the edges of what we think this consumer technology should and should not do, McKay’s art leads us into the gap between expectation and evidence, challenging the viewer to consider what one sees and how the technology works. But unlike the Wizard of Oz behind his […]

Barbara Breitenfellner. Work from Collages. “(…) One could say that Barbara Breitenfellner essentially „exhibits exhibitions“, every installation becoming an exhibition in itself, like those we can find in crappy private collections, in strange American suburban museums or even in trendy art galleries. For her show at CAPRI, the artist presents printed works for the first […]

Larry Sultan and Mike Mandel Work from Evidence. Below is a section of Larry Sultan’s (1946-2009) obituary from the New York Times, Larry died yesterday in California. “…In the mid 1970s using a grant and a letter of introduction from the National Endowment for the Arts, Mr. Sultan and Mike Mandel, who had met as […]

Maurizio Anzeri Work from his oeuvre. “Embroidery never seemed as dark and suggestive as in the art of London-based Italian artist Maurizio Anzeri. In his meticulous work, he transforms old discarded family photographs into three-dimensional objects with intense psychological evocations. “The intimate human action of embroidery is a ritual of making and reshaping stories and […]

   Leslie Grant Work from Pointing. Pointing is a collection of fantastic and enjoyable appropriations and recontextualizations of images found at flea markets and yard sales, and most likely various and sundry other places. Enjoy. – via The Exposure Project.

Mark Wyse Work from Disavowal. “Disavowal is an engagement with our conflicted relationship to desire. If in a crude sense modernism is an embrace of desire and postmodernism is a critique of that desire, this show seeks to commingle the two. In doing so it explores key works by both contemporary and historical artists who […]

Sean Higgins Work from Difficulties with Interplanetary Travel. “Through his pieces, Higgins prods at the human instinct to associate images with the familiar. Namely, there is a tendency for viewers to look for a “real” object/place that exists or has existed when confronted with an amorphous shape in nature, like a cloud or unidentifiable landmass. […]

Eddie Whelan Work from his oeuvre. “There’s something -I don’t know -insouciant about these School of Athens folks. That’s one of the definite links, a kind of throw away, thrown together quality, that teases because I’d be equally unsurprised to learn that every second was laboured over mightily. (Think not though, but of course that’s […]

Gert Jan Kocken Work from Judenporzellan. “Street photographers have only a vague notion of what they’re looking for. But the moment the right situation does reveal itself, they recognise it immediately and leap into action. In the case of Dutch visual artist-photographer Gert Jan Kocken, the process is exactly the opposite. He knows what he’s […]
