Photorealism : Curated by Benjamin Godsill
5 Jul-11 Aug 2012

With work by Talia Chetrit, Sheree Hovsepian, Andrea Longacre-White and Lisa Oppenheim. Photorealism is a selection of recent art that remediates and reimagines the possibilities and definitions of abstraction and its intersection with photographic representation. The works assembled by the four artists included in Photorealism -- Talia Chetrit, Sheree Hovsepian, Lisa Oppenheim and Andrea Longacre-White -- all use photographic modes and dark room techniques to make photographs that are not just documentary but are representations of the mode of photography itself. Benjamin Godsill is a curator and a contemporary art specialist based in New York. From 2006-2011 he was a curatorial associate at The New Museum.
