James Casebere
For more than twenty years James Casebere has been at the forefront of an international movement in photography that questions the truthfulness of any image and the potential unreliability of what we think we see. Casebere discusses his meticulous methods of constructing fictional scenes in his studio then photographing them for exhibition. His haunting work embraces cinema, surrealism, social systems, urban sprawl and a broad sweep of history. His 2010 show at Sean Kelly Gallery (through December 4) received glowing notices such as this one from critic Roberta Smith of the New York Times. (31 minutes)
