FUTURE EXHIBITIONS

LANDSCAPE/CONTROL
a study in meaning & representation

A survey exhibition exploring the origins and meaning of the landscape photograph featuring works from the 19th century through today. The exhibition will trace the use of representations of landscape through diverse cultural aspects, from romantic through technical. For the most part, expressive ideation of landscape has changed little since pastoral renderings in paint of two centuries ago. New paradigms of landscape have appeared through the progress of new photographic technologies and new demands placed on it by science and culture. One of it's major revolutions occurred in the 1960s and early 1970s at the hands of practitioners of 'Land Art' - a move which, arguably, more radically challenged popular ideas about the representation of landscape than before. It could easily be argued that scientific / technical uses were at this point absorbed into 'cultural channels'.
