PHOTO-BASED at Barbara Archer Gallery

PHOTO-BASED features eight local and international artists who manipulate the medium of photography in fresh directions. Though every image begins with a photograph, the similarities end there. Photos are painted, collaged, and transformed digitally and by hand. The result shines new insights on traditional approaches.

A Full Hour with Cindy Crawford and Her Mole: Recent Drawings by George Lowe
