Hyperallergic Reviews Muir Vidler at (e)merge Art Fair

Mindy Solomon presented the dynamic talents of Muir Vidler, Becky Flanders and Jeremy Chandler at the Capitol Skyline Hotel in Washington D.C. this past weekend. Fortuitously, critics who visited were impressed by the thought-provoking, culturally evokative pieces created by three contemporary photographers.

Earlier in the week, we reported immediate response to Becky Flanders work by the DCist and today we’re excited to report a feature story and review of Muir Vidler by Hyperallergic. The article, written by Claire Breukel reports, “ I was curious if anything would “stand out” among the many of exhibitors. I then came across a curious series of six standard size loose photographic prints simply pinned to the wall, by Edinburgh-born, London-based photojournalist Muir Vidler.”

We are honored and excited that our contemporary photographers are receiving critical notice. Muir Vidler is currently showcased in our most recent show, “Contradictions” and you can see more of his work here.

(e)merge Fair Splash with Becky Flanders

Shocking images push the envelope of exotica, however upon further introspection of Becky Flanders contemporary photography pushes your emotion across gender boundaries. Ok, ok, when you finally looked up from your mobile device and was confronted with a woman peeing in the standing position you were awe struck, forgot where you were for a moment, realized you were in the Mindy Solomon Gallery booth and then asked politely, “Who is this artist?” “Becky Flanders!,” I reply. Becky constructs issues of gender with photographic performance in nature and hopes to evoke further dialogue about feminine and masculine roles in society.
