The second essay examines the anthropological significance of this way of working and the photographs it has produced. .50 Sharon Lockhart (Norwood, Massachusetts, 1964) is a young artist who uses the (cine)camera to record images. These images she makes her own by staging every aspect of them; the lighting, casting of the personages, placing of the objects and composition of the setting are all precisely thought out and weighed up. In the publication Sharon Lockhart - Teatro Amazonas we see photos that suggest another way of working.
. Five of these extraordinary photographs will be on view at the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art, June 19 - August 23. Lockhart's photographs emphasize the physical world and the pleasure of looking, rather than the story of the physical world or the story of the individuals pictured. Like some 17th-century Dutch painters, Lockhart reveals nothing but the image; and while we may want to know what the pictured scenes mean, we are left without any idea of what lies beyond the surfaces. This exhibition has been made possible by vital corporate, foundation, and individual contributions, as well as by grants from the Missouri Arts Council.
