Art in the Windows
On view day and night
The Art
Collection at Mid-Manhattan Library is pleased to present two exhibitions of
color digital photographs by the well-known multi-media artist Lydia Venieri.
In See No Evil she questions the
media’s distortion of reality by how images of war and terror are represented,
as she juxtaposes hyper-realistic pictures of war taken from film-stills with
the images of children’s dolls. These constructed photographs engage viewers in
a world addressing technology and human perception in relation to the
dissemination of images and information. Douglas Maxwell curator, art critic
and assistant professor of arts at New
York University,
will join Venieri for an Artist Dialogue on Monday May
18th at 6:30 p.m. on the 6th floor.
The exhibition series Art in the Windows and Art Wall on Third are curated by Arezoo
Moseni.
