About the Item

Untitled Payún, 2011 by Rodrigo Etem From the series Ser Cosa Archival pigment print on fine art paper Size: 40 H x 26 W inches. Edition of 7 Unframed …this series of portraits that at first glance appear to us as extraterrestrial beings, once we understand the images they become more familiar than they appear, “humans too human” perhaps more human than they appear. And for Adorno's negative dialectic, the problem was given as a human being in a world hostile to humans, the characters of Etem seem so natural to us to the extent that their presence is outside the pose of the portraits of the kings of the past, rather resemble the workers, peasants, common people in general, portrayed by Gustave Courbet or the realists of the mid-19th century, these new realists are captured by the camera in the usual development of their daily lives, in the hostile world of the desert or the swamp or the storm…” —-- Hernán Pacurucú. curator Fragment of the text: A glacial aesthetic. Approach to the contemporary photography of Rodrigo Etem --------- Rodrigo Etem has been investigating and working surreptitiously on concepts that aim to disseminate questions about our daily experience. Thinking today from a certain geography, in terms of territoriality, is being diluted with new technologies, the ways of communicating, and the imposed distances. Etem's pieces, far from being distant in today's challenge, get fully into the field of everyday life and desires. Crossing an entire continent from the screen, creating films without cameras, collecting all the errors of a virtual representation of the world, and making digital images occupy physical space, are some of the clues that can be found in his latest works.

Pointe - underwater photograph - archival pigment print 24x17"
By Alex Sher
Located in Beverly Hills, CA
This elegant underwater photograph captures a ballet dancer in pointe shoes and flowing white tutu, suspended in deep teal waters. The rich contrast between the pristine white costume and the moody blue-green aquatic environment creates a dreamlike atmosphere. Sher's composition bridges classical dance and contemporary underwater photography, exploring themes of grace transcending physical boundaries. The work continues the tradition of fine art photography that documents performance art in unexpected contexts, transforming the familiar ballet pose into a surreal meditation on weightlessness and artistic expression beneath the surface. "Four years ago I wrecked my sailboat and was selfmedicating with vodka at a Russian restaurant when I suddenly noticed a cute girl hanging from the ceiling right above my glass. She was not only beautiful, she was a dancer too, and she agreed to model for me underwater. Two days later, if you stopped by my pool you’d see a fully dressed ballerina with her hands underwater and me wriggling at the bottom around her dance e shoes. I kept asking her to tie and untie her pointe hypnotized by the small hands entwined in ribbons and light. I took quite a few pictures that day. This one is my favorite."
