For this exhibit, artists Kelli Connell and Natalie Krick use collage, reappropriation and wordplay as subversive tools to interrogate photography’s past.
The pair were inspired by the historic 1955 exhibition “The Family Man” organized by photographer and curator Edward Steichen (1879-1973) for the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. It ambitiously sought to describe universal aspects of human experience.
Connell and Krick expand this long legacy of critical looking by reinterpreting Steichen’s images, and photographs and original language from “The Family of Man” catalog. “O_ Man!” challenges the male dominated history of photography and raises questions of patriarchal authority, power, and bodily autonomy vital to our political time.
