Howard 495 is pleased to present, Wait Until Dark, a group exhibition curated by Stephen Waddell for Capture Photography Festival. Artists like Hannah Collins, Wols, Miroslav Tichy, and Jacqueline de Jong have all differently employed a kind of objectivity that moves beyond the visible towards a visceral refiguration of the seen and unseen. This exhibition will attempt to show that that resemblance almost certainly carries the promise of the unknowable and/or the unrepresentable in plain sight.
Since antiquity, the still life has been a place in which social relations and value systems are performed by objects, both everyday and extraordinary. Artificial Shrimp and Other Simulacra engages the still life to examine the hierarchies of objects which constitute contemporary material reality.
