Gallery 1: ALAN BYE will exhibit photographically derived artwork.
Gallery 2: ERIKA SANGER will exhibit photographic work which is dream inspired and consciously anachronistic in setting. A 19th century photo album and images of a 19th century home inhabited by the artist, provide a vehicle for these color images to exist in late 20th century environments.
Gallery 3: GERALDINE de HAUGOUBART in her exhibition entitled, "Impossible Co-Habitation", will present diptychs which juxtapose two very different worlds operating side by side. She will be using color amd black and white photographs together, stressing, "...the impossibility of these two worlds to blend together successfully."
Gallery 4: SEAN JUSTICE presents "Alaskan Memories: Land, History, Desire". His show is a series of images layered upon each other, which work as a multitiered self-portrait. Using images of Alaskan glaciers, written texts, and photographs of himself, the artist is making "speculations on the connections between these themes."
Gallery 5: FELIX GONZÁLEZ-TORRES will present an installation which uses photographic as well as sculptural elements, and explores "the economics and the institutions that construct meaning" within the context of the art exhibition. The artist's work has previously been exhibited at Artists Space and at Printed Matter.
