GALLERY HOURS: Tuesday – Saturday | 11AM – 6PM

New York, New York—November 2008—Humble Arts Foundation is pleased to announce the opening of Things Are Strange, curated by Jon Feinstein. The group exhibition, which opens on Election Day, presents work by eighteen photographers whose images explores the peculiar, idiosyncratic and often absurd elements of the contemporary world, using them as a metaphor for the current state of social and political affairs. The work includes a range of subjects, from the bizarre phenomena of Emiliano Granado’s documentary pictures of ghost hunters and Cara Phillips’ transformation of plastic surgery machines into terrifying robots to Eric Percher’s exploration of the alienation of late night finance workers and Amy Stein’s images of stranded American travelers. Each photographer, by varying degrees, alludes to a world that is gradually falling apart at the seams.

another “young curator” review

August 20th, 2008

…Florida-based artist Charles Benton’s Opposing Photographers, curated by Michael Bühler-Rose, is a natural starting point, since it uses projectors pointed at opposite walls to place the viewer directly between two photographer’s sightlines, forcing one to confront what Benton sees as the inevitable tension between photographer and subject in an ingenious bit of meta-photography….

AM New York

August 17th, 2008

AM New York wrote a nice review about my contribution, Charles Benton’s “Opposing Photographers”, to the “Young Curators, New Ideas” show over at the Bond Street Gallery which opened last Wednesday, pictures soon.

I have included the nice words about Benton’s piece below, the rest can be found here :

“The most striking contribution is Michael Buhler-Rose’s presentation of Charles Benton’s “Opposing Photographers.” The installation consists of two slide shows on facing walls, featuring photographers snapping shots of each other. Thus, the roles of photographer and subject are shared by both participants. The viewer is also made part of the action, hearing the click of each slide slotting into place before seeing the image pop up on screen. Further subverting the tenets of the medium, in each portrait, the subject’s face is obscured by their camera. It’s a playful work that fully engulfs the viewer. The installation also benefits from its placement in the basement, giving the work its own environment.”
