The Lunch Box Gallery cordially invites you to the popular Gallery Walk (Wynwood Art District) to see the acclaimed photography show “Isolations” which is now considered by the press as one of the BEST art shows of Art Basel’s season.
The exhibition gathers four different expressions of the notion of isolation, where human beings or things that belong to them are isolated to make a call for observation and raise a social commentary about the world today. Through the conceptual photographs of these four artists, themes emerge that can go from the exploration of alienation and passivity in our existing societies by experimenting with public reaction, to the examination of depersonalization as a consequence of the mass consumption, which has shaped this world of identical people even though fully convinced of being completely “free”.
The photographs reveal situations that are encapsulated in time by the use of photography as a medium, and at the same time, they awake in the viewer a sense of strangeness; a result of unnaturally isolating these situations within their own context, or decontextualizing them by removing elements from their expected frames of reference and placing them into new settings.
“Isolations” is open to the public from December 1st, 2011 to February 25th, 2012. Business Hours: Tuesday to Saturday 11am – 6pm and open during the Gallery Walks every second Saturday of the month (Dec 3rd, Dec 10th, Jan 14th, Feb 11th).
The Lunch Box Gallery is a small but vibrant and cutting edge gallery founded in February of 2011 and located in the Wynwood Art District of Miami. Its mission is to show and support the work of emerging regional, national and international artists of all media, with a particular emphasis on contemporary photography and its new trends; and where forms like conceptual, fine art, documentary and mixed media photography are subjects of exploration.
