There’s a neat-looking exhibition coming up in two weeks at NYU’s Grey Art Gallery featuring “photographic renegade” John Wood.
From the gallery: John Wood (born 1922) has consistently challenged traditional photography, often incorporating painting, drawing, and collage as well as cliche verre, solarization, and offset lithography. Transgressing the boundaries of “pure photography,” his eclectic practice has helped usher in alternative approaches to the medium. With their adroit manipulations of picture and text, his diaristic, multi-media compositions anticipate today’s digital imagery. On the Edge of Clear Meaning is Wood’s first museum retrospective, spanning his career from the early 1960s to the present.
