Summary:

Press release : Locks Gallery will exhibit a new series of photograph-based work by the Philadelphia artist and writer Eileen Neff from November 16-December 22, 2001. These fifteen images begin from the artist's photographs and combine several images that evoke both mysterious and playful landscapes.Neff, well known for photographic installations at the Philadelphia Museum of Art and ICA, Philadelphia, and as a critic and teacher, has most recently photographed interiors and the landscape as seen from the commuter train from Philadelphia to New York. This is her first exhibition at Locks Gallery and her largest solo exhibition since 1997.Previously, Neff's photographs turned into actual objects, combining furniture or picture frames with landscapes or interiors. In these new works, the complex structures of the installation are embodied in the individual photographs. Working from a conceptual impulse to trigger memory or reflection, Neff's landscapes pose questions about perception. The seemingly natural landscapes are in face constructions that allow Neff to question what is seen versus what is imagined. In this group of works, generated from her train photographs, movement and time seem to exist in different states within the same landscape. A fully illustrated catalog accompanies the exhibition with an essay by Dominique Nahas.
