Gallery Wall of Framed Documentary Photographs at Exhibition

5 October 2017 · Paris

Six framed prints arranged on a white gallery wall, each matted in white and set in a black frame. The photographs inside — shot in silver gelatin tones — document figures on and around the Brooklyn Bridge, with one larger print showing a banner reading a fragmented slogan and figures mid-movement. The installation reads as a sequence, smaller prints flanking a central larger one, the arrangement giving rhythm to what looks like 1970s performance or feminist action documentation. Archive work displayed this way asks the viewer to read across frames rather than into a single image.
