Focusing on photography, this exhibition will feature works by artists who demonstrate this medium’s rapidly expanding boundaries. With a basis in models or sets that produce a constructed image or with the employment of innovative processes including multiple exposures, repeated or layered negatives, digital augmentation, or collaged prints in both two-dimensional and sculptural form, the works manipulate the medium to present a new reality that questions the veracity of “truthfulness” generally associated with photographic representation.
