Since 1985, Adam Fuss has turned his back on the camera, preferring instead the original elements of photography, light, and paper. Fuss, currently the subject of an exhibit at the Museum of Fine Art in Boston, creates images by placing objects directly onto photographic paper and then exposing them to light.
Born in London and currently living and working in New York City, he will be featured in a one-person show, Adam Fuss: Works 1985-2002, Circular Forms, at the Fraenkel Gallery, opening November 7th.
In this exhibit, a circle can be found in each of his photograms, daguerreotypes, or pinhole photographs.
Some of them, like the bloom of a sunflower, are easily recognizable. Others, such as a trail left by a snake, leave much more to the imagination.
