Nothing in Common

Audiello Fine Art, New York

Audiello Fine Art, Inc. is pleased to announce Nothing in Common, a group exhibition featuring Madeline Djerejian, Naomi Fisher, Stuart Hawkins, Justine Kurland, Deborah Mesa-Pelly and Alexandra Rowley. The exhibition will open on Saturday, June 10 and run through July 21, 2000.

This group of artists were selected to explore the visual possibilities within the current state of photography, by returning focus to the individual through an assemblage which have Nothing in Common except the media.

Madeline Djerejian captures that fragile moment between the waking world and the realm of dreams. As a book becomes a window to more fulfilling fantasies, we read on and nod off from the loneliness of this solitary moment and ultimately the melancholia of our daily lives.

Naomi Fisher stages erotic incidents in tropical locals to literally address our sexual nature as a culture. She commingles our sense of what is organic instinct with what we repress, necrophilia, rape and the inherent perversity in each of our desires.

Stuart Hawkins fragments the familiar until we become foreigners in our own backyards. With a cropped perspective she perverts the commonplace, sometimes glorifying the simple but often making the ordinary, bizarre.

Justine Kurland orchestrates baroque landscapes but confines her characters to the modern arena. Issues of classicism and youth become utopian playgrounds where even if the activities veer into the sadistic the approach is never blasé or jaded.

Deborah Mesa-Pelly takes an ax to the stage exposing the artifice of illusion, creating a portal of revelation. Images of surprise that call upon our deeply repressed memories of birth, taunting us into an overwhelming world of knowledge.

Alexandra Rowley uses the visual psychology of water to explore our unconscious fears. As if we were floating in the vastness of space the banality of a suburban pool becomes an environment where we are plunged into the void to arouse our anxieties and vulnerabilities.
