Doug Hall is one of five artists whose works are on display in West Coast Visions: Artists from the SFMOMA Media Arts Collection, which opens today at Borusan Contemporary gallery in the Perili Kösk in Baltalimani:
“There is such a wonderful similarity,” says video artist Doug Hall, whose video of maritime activities on San Francisco Bay closely resembles the same daily panorama on the Bosporus and Sea of Marmara. “American explorer John Charles Fremont wrote about San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge as being named after Istanbul's Golden Horn,” he continues. Hall's 23-minute, two-channel projection, “Chrysopylae,” zooms in on cargo ships as they pass through the port of San Francisco, much like the continuous parade on Istanbul's waterways."
Wired Magazine has published a feature on Richard Renaldi's Touching Strangers series:
"The subjects’ spontaneous poses and reactions range from intimate to awkward, tender to taciturn, and they often betray the complexity and range of emotions human touch often elicits. A big part of the process was directing his subjects to interact in a way that looked interesting but also challenged them. Some were reluctant, even opposed, to participate. Some people didn’t have time; others backed out at the last moment, overwhelmed with discomfort or impatience."
The current Prix HSBC for photography exhibition will feature Delphine Burtin at the Seine 51 Gallery in Paris. The exhibition will be on view from June 20th to July 12th 2014.
