The deteriorated remains of an era of irresponsible leadership, greed, and negligence set the stage for New York photographer David Field’s latest series, Raze/Raise. Field has created a post-apocalyptic landscape indicative of the economic and moral collapse he feels has happened in America. With faded political posters, David speaks of an American ideal to be razed, and then raised again. Also shown is an excerpt from David’s surreal Pleasures of the Flesh series and other new works. Collectively, this exhibition promotes the tearing down of a failing system, and the rebuilding of a better one.
The exhibition runs from February 5th-27th, 2009. Gallery hours: Monday-Friday 10am-5pm, or by appointment.
