Alumni Focus: Stephen Crowley - Objects & Equations |
5/25/10 - 7/30/10 |
Stephen Crowley approaches his work with the same sense of exploration and wonder as when he was armed with a "Polaroid Swinger" at the age of 13. Over the last 25 years he has tried to find insightful moments in the midst of breaking national and international news that can sometimes define, in a single image, politics and culture. In his personal work Crowley searches for morsels of humanity, irony and humor, collecting images of the country's character as hinted at by physical structures, shifting light patterns and happenstance.
ABOUT THE EXHIBITION:
Objects & Equations features five separate bodies of work drawn from Stephen Crowley's extensive professional and personal photographic explorations.

One Time Use: Aaron Binaco, Anna Moller, Daniel Barrett, Marc McAndrews, and Marina Zamalin: One Time Use |
6/4/10 - 7/26/10 |
K&K is pleased to present One Time Use: a project using disposable cameras. Six artists were commissioned to shoot a disposable camera and then deliver their film to us. We are displaying every frame from this process online, while selected prints will be on view in the gallery for the duration of the exhibition.
The limitations of the project subjected six distinct individual aesthetics to the filter of the disposable camera. The disposable provides a medium which -- in its lo-fi-ness -- is capable of distilling the photographic process away from the technical distractions of photo gear. It is within this deliberately simplistic medium that the artists pursued their work.
The results are at once conceptually varied yet stylistically coherent. The imagery oscillates between landscape, infrastructure, portrait, travel, food, architecture, interior, and the street. Yet it consistently retains shared marks of the medium: obvious grain, distorted rendering of the subject, and a certain consumer haze.
Ultimately the end result of the process -- a series of limited edition prints hanging on gallery walls -- completes the alchemical cycle from budget / ephemeral back into valued / permanent which began when the artists themselves picked up the one time use camera.
Curated in collaboration with Drew Heffron.

Michael Massaia: Deep in a Dream, Platinum Prints |
6/12/10 - 7/28/10 |
This will be our first show of the platinum printed photographs of New Jersey photographer Michael Massaia. He is an up and coming artist gaining the attention of gallerists around the country. He works with an 8 x 10 inch view camera and uses the cumbersome platinum printing method to produce an impressive and highly unique body of work from around the New York City area.
Our show will feature photographs from three groups of work: Deep in a Dream with images of Central Park, Afterlife with images of seaside amusement parks and Chinatown Nights with nocturnal views of the buildings of Chinatown. All of these are photographed and printed in such a way, using what's known as "dodging", to create the unusual, surreal atmosphere of the finished prints. Regarding creating his work in the darkroom, he states, "I still believes that photography is an art form that is driven by equal parts technical prowess and artistic vision. The creation of an uncompromised handmade print in this modern, sterile digital age is, at its very least, a worthwhile endeavor."

9/10/10 - 9/26/10 |
| The University of New Mexico Art Museum is honored to present the retrospective Desire for Magic: Patrick Nagatani 1978-2008. This project is the first comprehensive analysis of the many and varied projects of New Mexico-based photographer Patrick Nagatani who has worked as a photographer and artist since the 1970s. It will include examples from his Nagatani/Tracey Polaroid Collaborations, the Japanese American Concentration Camp portfolio, Nuclear Enchantment, Novellas, Nagatani/Ryoichi Excavations, Chromatherapy series; and, the large-scale masking tape works, Tape-estries. This exhibition is the first to bring together these tour-de-force and seminal projects thus providing a unique opportunity to see the range of Nagatani’s directorial approach and the breadth of his contributions to color photography.
The exhibition is accompanied by a 260 page full-color publication, edited by curator Michele M. Penhall with essays by leading authorities in the field.

10/23/10 - 5/29/11 |
FASTER is cameras versus cars: combat between the two technologies that shape the Southern California psyche. This photographic exhibition captures a moment of confrontation and standoff -- the camera technology of a half century ago struggling to still the explosion of 1960s drag racing.
Susan Sontag defines photography as the "meta-art," the art that devours all others. But in the case of 1960s drag racing, devouring was out of the question. Drag racing is the ultimate expression of Southern California's cult of speed. The 7,000 horsepower engine of a top-fuel dragster pushes the 2,225 pound package of car and driver from zero to 330 miles per hour in 1,320 feet. Hit one hundred miles-per-hour in the first second, or you've lost the race.
Meanwhile, on the smoke-clouded sidelines, 1960s photographers jacked up their shutter speeds, picked their angles, and panned their cameras with the action. But this was before motor drives, auto-focus, and 1/8000 of a second. The frames are full of jittery motion and artifacts of racing's speed and chaos. The photographs bristle with lovely accidents. Gorgeous imperfection is the rule. And somewhere in each image is the smell of burning rubber and the roar of engines.
The Petersen Museum is generally listed as the premier automotive museum in the United States. To curate the show, I had the the good fortune to examine every 1960s drag racing image and contact sheet in the archives of National Dragster and the National Hot Rod Association. (Thanks to the Automobile Club of Southern California and Auto Club historian Matt Roth for their support.)
