Indepth Arts News: "OASES: A Group Show of Photography" 2003-07-08 until 2003-08-22 Laurence Miller Gallery New York, NY, USA United States of America
The landscape has always provided artists with an infinite range of choices
for personal expression, whether it be the depiction of a holy place or the
carnage of a battlefield. The ten artists selected for OASES each bring a
different interpretation to the landscape. Larry Burrows, shooting from
U.S. Marine helicopter, reveals a group of helpless Vietcong prisoners being
marched across gorgeous water-filled paddies; Yannick Demmerle invites the
viewer to feel lost within the rich details of an endless autumn forest;
William Eggleston records a detail of golden sand scarred by a tire track,
and punctuated by weeds; Mark Mann creates an urban oasis in which a family
seeks safety in the median of grass between lanes of a highway; and Uta
Kogelsberger reveals a nighttime scene in which a barren house sits aglow
within the darkness of a subterranean land.
