Chris Wiley

Chris Wiley Work from his oeuvre. “When looking at Chris Wiley’s photographs, two main things come to mind. One is you feel like you’re walking along at a particularly quite time of day in a suburban/urban area, noticing all the odd, mundane, but strangely beautiful detritus around the streets. Second is the Japanese concept of […]

Fleming Ove Bech

Fleming Ove Bech Work from his oeuvre. “Danish photographer Flemming Ove Bech’s images are satisfyingly simple. Taking a straightforward, sculptural approach to image making, Bech’s work combines unremarkable everyday components in a playful manner. Shapes and tones are flattened by the photographic plane and rendered in an oscillating palate of delicately muted pastel hues, and […]

Andrea Longacre-White

Andrea Longacre-White Work from her oeuvre. “Many of your works seem interested in the tension between analog and digital in the creation and reception of a work, like physical xerox scans of the screen of an iPad.  To what degree do you connect a piece to the technological platform on which it was made? The Pad […]

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 […]

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 […]

Wyatt Niehaus

Wyatt Niehaus Work from his oeuvre. “Wyatt Niehaus’ Future Solutions is a bleak pastiche of corporate signifiers: eco-friendly pantones, quixotic windmills, industrial sterility, Plexiglas smoothness. Overexposed and homogenous, Niehaus’ visuals flaunt their artifice, as well as the contemporary phenomenon of “green-washing”—a branding gambit that flirts with sustainability but makes no promises. This form of corporate […]

Steven Husby

Steven Husby Work from his oeuvre. “If this were a blog, it would begin, like ‘classical painting’, as Foucault would have it, with an assumption of a separation between its form and its content. One takes up the blog as a medium as a painter takes up the medium of painting, accepting certain limits as […]

His records now include more than 115,000 hourly recordings that span several continents and include some 40,000 miles travelled by bicycle. […]

David Shoerner

David Shoerner Work from After Gerhard Richter, Betty, 1988. “Publisher and photographer Schoerner uses his camera as a tool in a conceptual art practice. In his serial project After Gerhard Richter, Schoerner plays upon the German painter’s photo-realist painting style by posing his sitters in homage to Richter’s painting of his wife Betty (1998). Richter’s original […]
