PARTLYCLOUDYMOSTLYSUNNY
a solo exhibition of works by Andrew Neumann

In a time when still and moving imagery are reaching ever higher levels of hybridization, CPW invites audiences to consider technology’s function as a representational model through the work of Boston-based artist, Andrew Neumann. Incorporating LCD screens, exposed wires, motorized parts, language, codes, sound, photographs, film, and more, Neumann’s "industrial wall panels" cause viewers to question and conflate disparate modes of representation. He incorporates outright contradictions - still and moving images, electronic and organic components and disregarding any protocol (which is at the heart of any system) to explore the relationship between technology and the world it is meant to serve.

PHOTOGRAPHY NOW: EITHER / AND

Curated by Lesley A. Martin, Aperture Foundation

This year’s installment of CPW's annual Photography Now exhibition goes beyond the typical survey of contemporary photography and departs from its traditional format in the sprit of giving full credence to the medium’s pluralities.

Ms. Martin invites us to consider, "What defines contemporary practice? What is it and what do we value in it? On one hand, we encounter a staunch defense of "reality-based" photography via traditional film and camera optics; on the other, an increase in the use of photographs – staged, found, and digitally remixed – both strategies drawn from among many out of the quiver of contemporary art." In organizing this years Photography Now installment, she proposes that we are no longer served by a zero-sum approach of "either/or" to the medium, but rather, "either/and".

Part One: The New Skew (June 12 - July 18, 2010)
Part Two: The New Docugraphics (July 24 - Sept. 12, 2010)
