ABSTRACT OF THESIS CONSTRUCTING THE REAL: THE NEW PHOTOGRAPHY OF CREWDSON, GURSKY AND WALL A new class of photographs that relies on digital processes, best exemplified by the works of Gregory Crewdson, Andreas Gursky and Jeff Wall all exhibit a ‘not quite right’ quality that calls into question some of the most closely held truisms of photographic thought. Through novel technological processes combined with the elements of the new photography—new scale, fabulist imagery, and implied narrative—these images challenge the nature of photography as a documentary process and, beyond that, the nature of what we understand to be ‘the real’ that is supposedly documented. A visual analysis of these images through the lens of Roland Barthes’ and Susan Stewart’s scholarship reveals truths about these images and about photography as a medium.

Whereas during the height of postmodern semiotic critique, realism was taboo and documentary could only be deconstructed, today both are surprisingly vital. Nevertheless, recent attempts to recover realism after poststructuralism remain fraught, bound up with older epistemological and metaphysical concepts. This study argues instead for a “critical realism” that is oriented towards problems of ethics, intersubjectivity, and human rights. Rather than conceiving of realism as “fit” or identity between representation and reality, it is treated here as an articulation of difference, otherness and non-identity. This new concept draws on the writings of curator Okwui Enwezor, as well as German critical theory, to analyze the work of three artists: Ian Wallace (b.

    art press 350 dossier Still Images for Rethin the World Dominique Baqué If it’s November it must be Photo Month. As Jean-Luc Monterosso, director of the Maison Européenne de la Photographie, points out in this special section, this big Parisian event is now being emulated far and wide. But November is also the month of Paris Photo at the Carrousel du Louvre (November 13 to 16), a rich fair that usually offers a fine harvest of discoveries. Those with an interest in the more technical side of photography will find some thoughts con cerning the fragility of prints and the complexity of their conservation in the ar ticle by Anne Cartier-Bresson. As for Maja Hoffmann, who over the years has be come a key figure at the Arles photography festival, she talks to Bernard Marcelis about her plans—and not only in the realm of photography—for her Luma Foun dation, soon to be heaquartered in Arles in a building designed by Frank Gehry. Final ly, in the text here, Dominique Baqué considers recent trends in photography and its current status, and looks at ways in which some of its exponents are using the still image to analyze current realities by creating new forms of fiction. If one of the key concerns of modernism was the dogged struggle do keep the work of art from contamination by the mass media industry, and thus to preserve its autonomy, aura and purity, then the 1980s finally put paid to its hopes of success. The extension of photography into the field of the visual arts played no small part in this.

  • Graciela Iturbide's Private Universe
    Graciela Iturbide’s Private Universe September 24th, 2010 by Cassandra McGrath An ostrich stares indignantly at me, hip jutting out as though I had ditched its Thanksgiving dinner. “What are you doing in this gallery staring at me?” it seems to say. “Why didn’t you bring the cranberry sauce?” Like an exaggerated cartoon version of an image in National Geographic, the ostrich is one of the more vivid subjects in Graciela Iturbide’s most recent exhibition, Graciela Iturbide: asor, ending this week in the Rose Gallery at the Santa Monica Museum of Art. Iturbide once said, “While using my camera I am, above all, an actress participating in the scene taking place at the moment, and the other actors know what role I play.” In “asor,” taken straight from her personal archive, Iturbide creates a fantasy world that explores the terror and joy of childhood solitude. Inspired by her grandchildren and Alice in Wonderland, Iturbide photographed the Southern United States, Italy, India and Mexico, using snippets from each location but nothing identifiable from any of them. Instead, she crafted a new narrative that makes the fantastic pedestrian and the pedestrian fantastic. Clocks and abandoned buildings take on the significance of mythical creatures. In one pair of photographs, two blank eyeholes carved out of rocks peer out at the viewer, observing and saying nothing. Birds gather ominously in the sky like locusts, and in one arresting image, sunflowers are backlit and shot from below, drooping and spiky as Venus Fly Traps. Iturbide plays with perspective: A giant plaster head sits next to a parked car, disorienting any sense of scale.

  • Extended Through July 26, 2019
    Extended through July 26, 2019 Opening reception: Tuesday, April 30, 6–8pm April 30–June 22, 2019 522 West 21st Street, New York Jeff Wall, Parent child, 2018, inkjet print, 86 5/8 × 108 1/4 inches (220 × 275 cm) © Jeff Wall April , Gagosian is pleased to announce Jeff Wall’s first exhibition with the gallery. The majority of the works included are on view for the first time. From his pioneering use in the s of backlit color transparencies—a medium then synonymous with advertising—to his intricately constructed scenes of enigmatic incidents from daily life, literature, and film, Wall has expanded the definition of the photograph, both as object and illusion. The triptych I giardini/The Gardens () was photographed in the gardens of the Villa Silvio Pellico in Moncalieri, outside of Turin, Italy. Though Wall has made several works that combine two or more images, this is the first in which the order, read from left to right, represents a passage of time. It therefore has a narrative aspect absent from any previous picture group. The three images— individually titled Appunto/Complaint, Disappunto/Denial, and Diffida/Expulsion order—trace the relations between either two or four characters through three depicted moments. A doubling effect occurs again in Pair of interiors (), a diptych showing either one or two couples in a lamplit living room, and in Summer Afternoons (), which shows what appears to be another equally introverted, younger couple in a sunny apartment. Each person appears in his or her own picture, creating uncertainty about whether the diptych depicts one or more “summer afternoons.” Landscapes are the subject of three more works.

  • Introduction
    Introduction My interest in the Vancouver School began as a teenager aft er I enrolled in the Bachelor of Fine Arts program at the University of British Columbia in 1987 and signed up for two classes with Jeff Wall; a fi rst year studio class in photography and a required survey class in Art History. As a seventeen-year-old with very limited exposure to art history, criticism, or theory in high school I remember feeling surprised and challenged by Jeff Wall. At the beginning of the photography class he announced he would not be teaching us the mechanics of taking a photograph (camera, studio, or lab instruction); if we wanted to study fi lm processing and printing techniques we should join the camera club. Instead we would be discussing the ideas our photographs would evoke, and he didn ’ t care if we had the photographs printed by a commercial lab. Th is was the beginning of my decades-long engagement with what I might today characterize as ‘conceptual practices.’ With one exception, most of the Art History class transpired in a blur, some of it no doubt embedded in my memory to be unlocked one day in graduate school discussions, but superfi cially forgotten in the daily activities of my life then as a young studio artist. Th e exception was a lecture Wall presented on Freud ’ s psychoanalytic interpretation of Leonardo Da Vinci ’ s work, in particular Freud ’ s discussion of the latent maternal and homosexual desires he read as embedded in Da Vinci ’ s Madonna and Child with St Anne (1503).

Photo courtesy the artist and Metro Pictures, New York April , Gagosian is pleased to present About Photography, an exhibition by artists who have exhibited with the gallery over the past four decades, including Diane Arbus, Richard Avedon, Dike Blair, Chris Burden, Gregory Crewdson, Roe Ethridge, Urs Fischer, Ralph Gibson, Nan Goldin, Piero Golia, Douglas Gordon, Andreas Gursky, Duane Hanson, Seydou Keita, Vera Lutter, Florian Maier- Aichen, Sally Mann, Man Ray, Robert Mapplethorpe, Adam McEwen, Richard Phillips, Jean Pigozzi, Richard Prince, Robert Rauschenberg, Ed Ruscha, Cindy Sherman, Taryn Simon, Patti Smith, Cy Twombly, Jeff Wall, and Andy Warhol. About Photography explores the ways in which artists use photography as a medium, a means to an end, and a catalyst for other art forms. From Andy Warhol to Richard Prince, these artists open up the question of what it means to utilize the photographic medium for representation, as well as in the creation of form. As intellectual challenges continue to unfold, photography pervades not only all other artistic genres, but our every moment as well, a phenomenon that has irrevocably changed the nature of art itself. The show’s only sculpture, Duane Hanson’s Man with Camera (–), takes center stage: a figure perched on a folding chair poises his camera to take a photograph. Celebrated for their startling realism, Hanson’s figures and the “snapshot of America” that they constitute take on new meaning in a photographic context.

  • Urban Renewal: Ghost Traps, Collage, Condos, and Squats
    Essays / Scott Watson Urban Renewal: Ghost Traps, Collage, Condos, and Squats The tides flow in and out and you adjust your rhythms to them. —Paul Spong[1] Vancouver has been periodically mythologized as the leading art scene in Canada.[2] In the 1950s, abstract painting derived from British and European (more than from American, as one might have expected) examples along with the establishment of a Los Angeles-influenced West Coast modernist architecture inspired some enthusiastic observers to declare a “renaissance.”[3] Art travellers, largely commissioned by the National Gallery of Canada, discovered a small coterie of artists, architects, musicians, and teachers who had plunged themselves into twentieth-century aesthetics. But in an international or even national context, one would have to admit that the advent of modernity in domestic architecture was very late in arriving in Vancouver. The first post and beam homes with flat rather than gabled roofs were built in 1939, just on the eve of the war that forestalled any further such development until the late 1940s. From that time until the early 1960s, modernism seemed to flourish. Most of the city’s painters (we are talking of about twenty people) lived in architect-designed suburban homes. While it is usual to think of the work of these painters as involved with nature and the motifs of forest, mountain, ocean, and atmospheric effect, utopian and dystopian images of www.vancouverartinthesixties.com/essays/urban-renewal Scott Watson / Urban Renewal the city abounded in their work. Although often described as basing their abstractions in the landscape, a strong figurative and even expressionist current is found in their work.
