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
