Galerie Bugdahn und Kaimer Düsseldorfer Straße 6 40545 Düsseldorf Allemagne

Gabriel Jones (*1973) is a native of Montréal, Canada, and lives and works in New York. In his first exhibition in a German-speaking country, Galerie Bugdahn und Kaimer is showing fourteen new colour photographs out of the cycle, 'Somewhere on Time', matt-laminated and mounted on Dibond. The sizes vary from 28 x 51 cm / 11" x 20" (edition of 7) and 115 x 160 cm / 45" x 63" (edition of 5). At the interface of portrait, landscape, architectural and societal photography, the artist develops his work by consciously combining environments in urban or landscape outdoor space with various sitters. He extends extant light conditions using the artificial light of studio lamps. This procedure lies behind the homogenous wealth of detail in his works; coupled with the later measure of digital colour editing ('desaturation' of the original colours), it gives rise to melancholy images of hyper-realistic ('supernatural') and unfamiliar air - as unsettling as they are fascinating. In front of the modulated backgrounds of walls, the facades of buildings, plants and landscape, the portrayed seem like actors in a film still or the figures of a painting. Jones has an eye for the subtle, barely perceptible gestures, glances and stances that become visible through his male and female protagonists. Through it he plays with the difference between the precise moment of a spontaneous gesture and the extended duration of the frozen pose. His achievement is to reveal to the viewer aspects of the human psyche concealed for their laying bare our vulnerability and proportionately evasive of neat words. © Gabriel Jones
