Photographic Pictures
June 30 – August 26, 2022
“Curated by Anne Collier, Photographic Pictures takes Jiro Takamatsu’s 1972/73 series Photograph of Photograph as its departure point. Featuring works from Julie Becker, Anne Collier, Moyra Davey, Lloyd Foster, Luigi Ghirri, Joseph Grigely, Hervé Guibert, Leslie Hewitt, Jochen Lempert, Zoe Leonard, Judy Linn, Marlo Pascual, Jack Pierson, Sabine Reitmaier, Melanie Schiff, Jiro Takamatsu, Lew Thomas, and Wolfgang Tillmans; Photographic Pictures is, like Takamatsu’s project, ultimately a consideration of photography’s ongoing and self-reflexive relationship with itself: as a medium, as a discipline, and as an idea. It is about the act of looking and how we develop relationships with images. The majority of the works in the exhibition subscribe to the notion of “pictures of pictures”, “images of images” or “photographs of photographs”, in that they document or depict an existing image, whether it be a photographic print, an image observed on a screen, a page of an open book, a newspaper clipping, a magazine cover, or a record sleeve.”
