Eleanor Macnair
Photographs Rendered in Play-Doh

Reception with the artistFriday March 18th 6:00-8:00 PM
Exhibition continues through April 16th

“Eleanor Macnair is interrogating the role of photography in such a rigorously post-pomo way that she must surely be a shoo-in for the next Deutsche Börse prize shortlist. Photographs rendered in Play-Doh” reintroduces the politics of play into contemporary art practice, while holding a soft, slightly bendy mirror to the conceits of traditional photography. The French theorists have a phrase for it: la pâte à modeler. In a series of brilliantly executed, penetratingly ironic tableaux that exploit the plasticity of the medium, Macnair remakes some of the world's most celebrated two-dimensional photographs as three-dimensional sculptures, quietly subverting the very notion of jeu d’infant.”

Michael Lange
Wald | Fluss
 
Reception with the artist
Friday March 18th 6:00-8:00 PM
Exhibition continues through April 16th

“From the forest to the river, Michael Lange captures that moment that any wanderer through the trees or along the embankment can recognise. The soft mist above a still, glassy surface. The footpath after the rain, as drops continue to fall from the trees even as the sky begins to clear.”
