Jacques Sonck: Archetypes
June 25 – August 15, 2014
Opening Wednesday, June 25th, 6-8pm
The subjects in Sonck’s photographs vary in age, size, gender and style. They face the camera alone, in pairs or in groups of three. They are often presented in a manner referencing classical composition, yet they always remain approachable, even familiar.
While the images from Sonck’s 40-years of portraits hint at the influences of August Sander and Diane Arbus, they are subtle and multi-layered belying first appearances. His focus on individuals as well as relationships among them is done with tenderness, humor, poetry and respect. Sonck presents the uniqueness of each individual and in doing so puts into question the very meaning of an “archetype”.
