Here Now: Contemporary Photographers of the Hudson Valley
Woodstock Byrdcliffe Guild
August 12 - September 24, 2023
HEMPHILL is pleased to share Tanya Marcuse's inclusion in Here Now: Contemporary Photographers of the Hudson Valley at the Woodstock Byrdcliffe Guild. The exhibition is on view through September 24, 2023.
An exhibition of acclaimed Hudson Valley photo-based contemporary artists who each employ various approaches and techniques to relay stories — primarily of differing cultural backgrounds, identity issues, and a relationship to nature. Their works vary in terms of aesthetics — ranging from highly refined formalism, to capturing candid moments of current societal mores. The collective works present a compelling and insightful reflection into this present moment.

WOVEN: Tanya Marcuse Interview and Photographs
Truth in Photography
HEMPHILL is pleased to share an interview with Tanya Marcuse conducted by Truth in Photography. Please find an excerpt below.
Truth in Photography: When you're making photographs, what are you trying to do? What's your goal? What do you look for?
Marcuse: In my recent projects giving the viewer an immersive sense of wonder is paramount. My goal is for the pieces to work as allover compositions from afar, but also as luscious still-lives when drawn in close. I want to invite a viewer into the world in the photograph where they can have their own passage between belief and doubt –a seduction side by side with skepticism about that relationship between the constructed and the natural. However fabled, the scene is still real and factual, presented across the picture plane –like a platter– to the viewer.

As Galleries Return to Normal, One Group Show Thinks Big
For OPEN on K, Hemphill in Washington D.C. asked artists to bring their biggest ideas.

For Open on K, Hemphill asked artists to bring their biggest ideas. That’s a promising gallery provocation for this moment of return to not-quite-normalcy. Rush Baker appears to have found urgent inspiration in the Black Lives Matter protests for racial justice in the summer of 2020, but his paintings also point indirectly to the inchoate rage of the January 6 insurrection, with which the United States has yet to reckon. Many other artists — and many of the rest of us — spent months looking inward. Stepping back into the gallery after so many months of not seeing or showing or socializing marks an important moment, one in which we may see what’s changed.
