Exposition. Gene YOUNG: photographs 1998 - 02 mars 1998 USA, Washigton D.C., The Corcoran Gallery of Art "Washington artist Gene Young makes photographs that evoke allegorical and personal responses to African culture. While some are photographed from life, other images are staged studio scenes or highly-charged still lifes of amulets, conch shells, bones, masks and other objects. Sometimes simple and direct, often layered and complex, Young's work constitutes an ongoing personal exploration of spiritual and historical connections between African-American life and a hidden African past. Many of Young's prints are created by hand-coating paper with palladium metals, one of the oldest and most beautiful photographic processes. He also uses new technology, in the form of computer-generated Iris ink jet prints. This presentation, which consists of approximately 30 photographs, marks Young's first solo museum exhibition."
