ON CURRENT EXHIBIT

ARTHUR TRESS

Arthur Tress has four of his images from his Tao of Physics series in the exhibition currently at the de Young Museum of Fine Arts of San Francisco. The show is entitled "Towards Abstraction: Photographs and Photograms" and runs until November 15th. The de Young can be found in Golden Gate Park at 50 Hagiwara Tea Garden Drive. Just as abstraction has played a vital role in the history of modernist painting and sculpture, so too has it found expression in works by leading photographers of the 20th and 21st centuries. "Toward Abstraction" also features the work of Edward Weston, Arthur Siegel, Harry Callahan, Lee Friedlander, Imogen Cunningham, and Robert Mapplethorpe.

Tress also has 13 of his photographs in "Reality Revisited: Photography from the Moderna Museet Collection". This exhibition, presented in Stockholm at Sweden's top contemporary art museum until September 20th, focuses on a cross-section of work from the 1970s and discusses how photography relates to questions of form and content, subjectivity and objectivity, art and politics. In addition to photographs by Tress, work by Larry Clark, Ralph Gibson, Irina Ionesco, Duane Michals, Melissa Shook and others will be shown. The exhibition will also present work by Swedish photographers Eva Klasson, Anders Petersen and Christer Strömholm.
