Join us October 4, 5pm – 8pm for the First Friday opening reception at Cherry Street Pier’s Studio 101.
In honor of American Archives Month, Termite TV Collective will showcase work by Deb Rudman and Lisa Marie Patzer at Cherry Street Pier, October 4-31.
The show features reflections on an archive of 35mm slides by photographer Ben Kabakow. The images Kabakow captured during the mid-1950’s reflect life in New York City and travels to popular tourist locations. Sample Portrait, a video by Kabakow’s granddaughter Deb Rudman, is an intimate portrait of Kabakow’s life, relationships, and love of photography. In Chromatographic Landscapes, a series of prints and reverse-lit art panels, Lisa Marie Patzer utilizes various digital chroma-based processes to sort, separate out, and reconfigure images from a collection of over a thousand 35mm slides.
Her treatment of this large archive of analog imagery emphasizes the role nostalgia and personal association play when interpreting another’s visual anthology.
