Lucas Samaras: Photofictions

24 Mar — 17 Apr 2004

In Photofictions Lucas Samaras continues his exploration of an enigmatic world suspended between fantasy and reality. Landscapes, interiors, flower pieces and self-portraits are created with digital images taken by the artist and recomposed through computer manipulation. They follow on from earlier photo-based work such as the AutoPolaroids (1969-1971), the Photo-Transformations (1973-1976), Sittings (1979-1980) and the Panoramas of the mid 1980s. These are the first works in which Samaras uses photographs taken outdoors.
