Lisa Fairstein “Deep Shade”

Baxter Street/ the Camera Club of NY

This event has ended.

Baxter St at the Camera Club of New York presents Deep Shade, an exhibition of photographs by 2016 Workspace Resident Lisa Fairstein.

For Deep Shade, Lisa Fairstein takes inspiration from signs and abstractions generated by today’s image-sharing culture. Her creative process involves re-staging and re-photographing selected fragments from digital image feeds, acknowledging the poetic possibilities found within the visual short-hand of web-based photography. By isolating and reframing these aspects of captured and shared moments, she makes slow photographs motivated by accelerated looking.

Lisa Fairstein has exhibited at Pioneer Works, NY; the Philadelphia Photo Arts Center, PA; the Wassaic Project, NY; Fresh Window Gallery, NY; Signal Gallery, NY; the Cantor Fitzgerald Gallery at Haverford College, PA; {TEMP} Art Space in collaboration with NURTUREart, NY; and at Vox Populi, PA. She has been awarded residencies by the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council, the Wassaic Project, and Pioneer Works. She received her Masters of Fine Arts from the School of Visual Arts. Lisa lives and works in New York City.
