Doug Fogelson: On Climate
Brushwood Center at Ryerson Woods
June 12 - September 4, 2016
This solo exhibition brings together two of the artist's recent photographic projects. In Broken Cabinet Fogelson explores the compulsion to collect, document, and study diverse specimens while addressing the roles humans play in facilitating extinction. In Creative Destruction the artist chemically alters photographs of lush natural landscapes, an act that produces new forms and meanings, reflecting the impacts of climate change on the environment.
In addition to these two bodies of work, the artist will create a new, site-specific, outdoor installation.
Curated by Franck Mercurio
Gallery hours:
Monday - Thursday 9 a.m. - 3 p.m., Sundays 1 - 3 p.m. or by appointment.
