Pool Gallery in Berlin presents Amy Stein: New American Fables from
April 26 – May 24, 2008. "My photographs serve as modern dioramas of our new natural history.“ In Domesticated Amy Stein explores the paradoxical relationship between man and the natural world: The primal issues of comfort and fear, dependence and determination, submission and dominance refer to our modern every day life.The photographs in this series are constructed based on real stories from American provincial life. By contrast, the setting of Halloween in Harlem is the City: kids are posing in colourful costumes in the streets of New York. With their unconscious commitment to the traditions and rituals of this typical American holiday, the protagonists appear proud and isolated at the same time.
