"Salon Style: An Exhibition of Photography"
2001-12-14 until 2002-01-13
Plus Ultra Gallery
Brooklyn, NY, USA United States of America

PLUS ULTRA is very pleased to present Salon Style: An Exhibition of Photography, featuring recent work by 14 artists from New York, Caracas, and London. Installed floor to ceiling, the works blanket the gallery walls, offering a rich, exhilarating survey of contemporary photography. The artists include Lara Alcantara-Lansberg, Meredith Allen, John Berens, Liz Deschenes, Amy Eshoo, Stacy Greene, Heather Halliday, Karolyn Hatton, Nick Kline, Claire Lesteven, Joe Ovelman, Laurie de Swarte, Sara Wight, and Mark Woods.

Representing a broad range of innovative photographic techniques, the work in Salon Style is unified conceptually through a shared exploration of the relationship between landscapes and objects. Sometimes front-and-center, sometimes quite obscure, the objects in these perceived environments run the gamut from ice cream to cars, from evidence of the image creation process to people in non-portrait (or supportive) poses. The salon style installation takes this exploration one step further, creating a landscape within the gallery in which the photographs also become objects. In this way the very notion of what a landscape is comes into question. IMAGE:
