What You Want Curated by Matthew Leifheit
	Bobby Doherty May 30 – June 29, 2013 Opening Reception: Thursday, May 30, 6-8pm Featuring: Thomas Albdorf Raphael Cohen Sara Cwynar Bobby Doherty Trey Wright Curated by Matthew Leifheit as part of CCNY’s Guest Curators Program, this exhibition presents five visually indulgent approaches to the contemporary photographic still life. Embracing humor with dazzling color and brilliant light, these emerging artists test boundaries between the studio and the natural word, blending broad strokes between the two. These still lives present the artists’ desires objectified and reconfigured to be universally relatable. In them, disparate banal objects are combined with abandon in order to create visual pleasure. Here is What You Want. A limited edition exhibition catalog will be available for purchase at the opening reception for $10. The catalog features a cover illustration by Ole Tillmann and includes an introductory poem by Paul Legault.
