Recent projects have addressed topics ranging from the current Iraq war to the politics of bicycling in a city of freeways.

Appropriating strategies of presentation and display from the high-end clothing market, this unconventional installation will encourage viewers to ask questions about how we experience different types of cultural spaces, how we perceive the relationship between one type of luxury good (fashion) and another (art), and how both political and aesthetic discourses are framed in contemporary society.\n\nThis project is made possible in part by the W.

Instead, the exhibition charts one constellation of positions at the intersection of painting, photography, and the public imagination.
