Event Description

About the Show

This exhibition includes works rooted in traditions such as the gum-bichormate process of the mid-19th century, invented processes that utilize the photosensitive properties of human skin, wood, and red rosin paper, and a wall installation in which 160 LED bulbs, 160 dimmers, and 1500 feet of electrical wire create a fully analogue, manually digitized, electronic, photographic display. 

About the Artist

Albert Pedulla is a New York-based visual artist whose primary medium is experimentation. His photo-based work exposes the invisible spectrum of photographic suppositions. Pedulla is interested in a layered dialogue about the nature of image-making, perception, and meaning, yet these conceptual concerns manifest themselves as visually rich, poetic works of art. Pedualla is an artist and writer who lives and works in the New York City area where he also runs a design/build firm. He has received artist's grants from the Texas Arts Commission, and New Jersey Council on the Arts. He was selected to participate in the Triangle Arts Foundation's international artist residency program and received a CORE residency at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. He has written on art for the journals IMAGE, Comment and SEEN as well as catalogue essays including Rescinding Disbelief: The Post-Skeptical Realism of Guy Chase.
