Richard Learoyd Exhibition
The Pace Gallery (32 E 57th St)
This event has ended.
Pace and Pace/MacGill Gallery inaugurates their representation of British artist Richard Learoyd with an exhibition of his large-scale color and black-and-white photographs made over the last decade.
With an unparalleled passion for the medium and its materials, Richard Learoyd explores the limits of photographic expression in his portraits, nudes, still lifes of animals and mirrors, and views of the English countryside. His work occupies a unique place within the practice of contemporary photography, employing anachronistic production techniques, borrowing from the aesthetics of the finest figurative painters of the 19th and 20th centuries, and drawing upon the longstanding tradition of vanitas imagery. Despite their art historical relevance, however, Learoyd’s photographs evoke a timeless quality and remain universally resonant.
