Press release
Baldwin Gallery is celebrating its 30th winter season in Aspen with its 7th show with artist Adam Fuss. The exhibition, Theia, features new gesso-print photography on aluminum.
Adam Fuss has used many photographic techniques throughout his career, including photograms and daguerreotypes. In this series, he employs a press to create a collage effect where the photographed objects appear three-dimensional. The photographs evoke feelings of change, the passage of time, and the delicate nature of reality.
Fuss (b. 1961, London, UK) grew up in England and Australia, where he first began to photograph the natural environment. Fuss deems that for any photographic method to resonate, it should be tailored and transformed into a grander metaphor, utilizing practices intended to mirror the natural world. Fuss’s imagery is permeated by spiritual and romantic elements.
His work has been exhibited in museums and institutions worldwide, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; Museum of Modern Art, New York; the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; Los Angeles County Museum of Art; Victoria and Albert Museum, London, UK; and Huis Marseille Museum for Photography, Amsterdam, Netherlands, among others. Fuss has lived and worked in New York City since 1982.
