Many thankx to the MMK Museum für Moderne Kunst Frankfurt for allowing me to publish the photographs in the posting. There are so many excellent exhibitions finishing before 4th January 2015 I hope I get them all, including a huge two part posting on Robert Frank, a posting on Paul Strand and Nicholas Nixon’s The Brown Sisters. Keep your fingers crossed I have time… For her, the book and the choreography of the photographs within it (the sequencing) is the work. What most interests Singh about photography is its dissemination in unusual and interesting ways. Film strips as a puzzle (with echoes of Robert Heinecken) that can be read vertically, horizontally and in the round. In the top two installation photographs there is reference to Ed Ruscha’s folder books but in the large installation photographs (the wooden panels) I see more a cinematic archive form rather than a book form. This exhibition looks fantastic. I really love the sensitivity and melancholy of the individual images, I just wish I could see the whole exhibition up close in order to comprehend the scientific, surreal dreamscape narratives. Exhibition dates: 27th September 2014 – 4th January 2015Ĭourtesy of the artist and Frith Street Gallery, London
