Visual Arts Gallery: 601 W 26th StSchool of Visual Arts (SVA) presents “Newly Released,” an exhibition featuring thesis projects by 25 students in the MFA Photography, Video and Related Media Department, including video installations and documentary and conceptual photographic work. Curated by faculty member and independent curator Marvin Heiferman.
Curator Marvin Heiferman comments on the 2007 class:
"The 25 graduates have been charged over the past two years with developing a personal vision, and (this being America, and given the commercial nature of the art world) product, too. Each work encompasses months of reflection, research, development and production, followed by critiques and test-marketing carried out among peers, instructors, master class teachers and thesis advisors. Taken together, these newly released works by a newly credentialed group of artists explore the diverse ways photographic imagery is being made, used, questioned and explored today."
The exhibition includes work by artists tackling a variety of original and provocative themes, including cultural identity, as Dina Kantor ambitiously attempts to document all the Jews in Finland; urban redevelopment in Alejandra Laviada’s elegant photographs of abandoned office spaces in Mexico City; family relationships in Ryan Pfluger’s grid of poignant photos of his father and himself; and the need to exert control in a world too full of information seen in Elizabeth White’s sprawling installation of found Internet images.
In addition to the presentation of conventional photographic prints, the exhibition also includes video installations by Barbara Bulletti, projections by Michelle Meier, illustrated books by Hannah Smith Allan and Erin Gleeson, and sculpture by Tiana Peterson.
