Louise Lawler
“NOT ENOUGH TO SEE”
New York, 22 East 80th Street
This latest series of dye sublimation prints focuses on images of Jasper Johns' iconic painting Three Flags (1958), taken earlier this year at the Whitney Museum of American Art. Lawler is a steadfast investigator of the making of pictures. Using long exposures, swift camera movements and cropping, Lawler creates abstract images of this well-known motif. Here, these analog techniques both manipulate the image and comment on both perception and the fast-paced flood of images that marks everyday life in the digital era.
