photo-eye Gallery introduces Liz Hickok as our new gallery artist!
San Francisco-based artist, Liz Hickok, creates balsa models of the city, casts them in silicone rubber and fills the molds with several shades of a dessert we thought was only for our eating pleasure, Jell-O®.
Liz states, "The gelatinous material also evokes uncanny parallels with the geological uncertainties of San Francisco's landscape. While the translucent beauty of the compositions first seduces the viewer, their fragility quickly becomes a metaphor for the transitory nature of human artifacts."

photo-eye Gallery Staff Pick
This week, Adam Figliola, from our Shipping/Receiving department, has chosen
Hiroshi Watanabe's "Toris Bar, Yokohama, Japan, 2003."
Adam chose this image for its ability to engage the viewer quietly with its subtle tones and glowing forms lending itself closely to Watanabe's unique vision.

| Richard Prince: Jokes, Gangs, Hoods (SIGNED)
"Most everything Richard does is calculated to reflect another of his practices. Every medium and every theme is supported by, and in turn supports, another body of work. Gangs, and Jokes, and Books, and Collections, and Cowboys, and Sunsets, and Houses, and Hoods, and Planters all reflect and enhance each other. At times, he collates his images in picture books-the first was Inside World, which served as the title of a catalogue for a group show (with the same title) that Richard was in at Kent gallery. These picture books are probably my favorite of his books because they are where Richard creates and curates himself."—excerpted from, Dike Blair,"A Reflection or Two (on Richard Prince), Parkett #72, 2004

Michael Lundgren: Transfigurations
"Historically, landscape photography was used as a means of documenting geographic and scientific exploration. Later it transitioned into a way to record nature and the spectacle of human progress. Rarely has it been employed more abstractly to convey an atavistic or ecstatic experience as it is in the new work of Michael Lundgren.
Limited edition
This limited edition of 50 is signed and numbered and comes with an 16×20 inch silver gelatin print in a cloth portfolio, signed by the artist."—the publisher READ MORE
