Lucas Blalock

Lucas Blalock Work from his oeuvre. “Carmen Winant: All of your pictures are shot on 4× 5 film, scanned and then post-produced in Photoshop. Why work across multiple formats? Lucas Blalock: Early on, it was important that the pictures had a foot in both the analogue and the digital. When I began making pictures in […]

Nick van Woert

Nick van Woert Work from his oeuvre. “The post-apocalyptic terrain van Woert covers in “No Man’s Land” is expansive, and initially seems to lack a center. Each piece, however, addresses humans’ conflicting capacities for creation and destruction. The exhibition includes an 8-foot-tall set of silverware, with which van Woert intends visitors to “ingest” his works, […]

Lyndsy Welgos

Lyndsy Welgos Work from her oeuvre. “Rawson Projects: Firstly, I think you have always attempted to address the identity of photography as an art medium in your work. In your first exhibition with Rawson Projects, while still employing photographic processes, you stripped the works of specific references to time and place. Can you describe how […]

Amy Brener

Amy Brener Work from her oeuvre. “Amy Brener has developed a method of layering resin, glass and fresnel lens to create light sensitive sculptures. Her recent works resemble artifacts of an imagined future. Some surfaces suggest touch-screen platforms and energy cells. Others are left to chance: to crystallize, crack under pressure and weather with time. […]

Claus Rasmussen

Claus Rasmussen Work from his oeuvre. “With the dominance of mass produced and pre-manufactured goods, measures, rules,and a set of well-defined production standards have become the foundation oftrade and a free market economy. Pre-fabricated garments, furniture or evenhouses are easily and cost-effectively produced – mostly by machines – andconsumed en masse. Rasmussen confronts the accompanying […]

Brion Nuda Rosch

Brion Nuda Rosch Work from his oeuvre. “Deconstructing or rearranging the commonplace, making new, jarring the viewer out of an object or photograph’s sense of embedded context, Brion Nuda Rosch’s sculptural works and collages make us better aware of what is the immediacy in our environments. Often simplifying the analogical process we bring to a […]

Jürgen Drescher

Jürgen Drescher Work from his oeuvre. “In his work, the artist constantly interrogates the socio-political potential of art and encourages debate on received perspectives regarding the status quo of objects, world politics, and globalization. Here, as in earlier exhibitions, we find casts and molds of everyday objects familiar to all of us. They awaken very […]
