My photographs at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art
Three of my photographs were on display at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, July–December, 2019,
in the exhibition, Don't! Photography and the Art of Mistakes, included works by Man Ray, Florence Henri, Lisette Model, Ilse Bing, Ralph Eugene Meatyard, John Gossage and Sara Cwynar in which “mistakes” such as double exposure, lens flare, motion blur, solarization and processing accidents contribute to the success of the photographs. The presentation begins with an exhibition of vintage self-help books by self-proclaimed experts offering instructions and rules meant to assure successful photography. My Polaroids of such books, made in 1975, are in the last gallery where they reprise the physical books while making an ironic reference to the canon of “good” photography that is so gleefully violated in this exhibition.
