Opens Tonight, 6-8p:
“Umschläge”
Peter Piller
Andrew Kreps Gallery, 525 W22nd St., NYC
Translated as “covers”, the title of the show refers to one of two bodies of work in this exhibition comprised of the pairing of the front and back images of the East German military magazine Armeerundschau which always featured armored vehicles on the front and pin-up girls on the back. Piller has been working with found images for over 20 years and has created and worked with the archive as medium –and the re-interpretation and the re-presentation of images already published in other contexts. By gathering and re-presenting seemingly innocuous images – images that we are presented with everyday in newspapers, magazines, advertisements and the internet – into groups, Piller brings forth some of the sinister, comedic, and sometimes tragic aspects of these images wholly projected by the viewer themselves. - thru May 18
