Indepth Arts News:

"Terry's Studio: John Hanson and Richard Paul"
2001-10-12 until 2001-11-04
Hoxton Distillery
London, , UK United Kingdom

In this latest manifestation, John Hanson & Richard Paul's interest in the mechanics and reception of photography turns to the appeal of the studio itself.

The residual glamour of the 24-hour studio, with its black coffee, black walls and gaffer tape chaos, is teased out and pitched against the perfect world of product images. The photographs of office supplies and their suggestion of 9-5 conformity are fused with the looser framework of photographers' studios, to create a hybrid photographic world.

The result is a 4-room installation at Hoxton Distillery, made up of photographs, video and objects, made at the original studio.

A working studio for twenty years, the original Terry's Studio is now closed.

... with themes like the disparity between space and image, caffeine-fuelled migraines and pretty pictures, their work acts out its own twisted formalism. Expect a quasi-celebratory exploration of questionable pleasures had by one man in his darkened photo-cave.
