Christina Zück: Defense Phase II Karachi

Christina Zück studied photography and art theory in Arles, New York, and Karlsruhe. She has been exhibiting her work internationally since 1996. In early September 2001, Christina travelled to Karachi where she received news of the 9/11 attacks. Christina wonders what happened to Karachi, the city that sometimes is named “the epicentre of terror.” How do people get by in a city engaged in a new form of war that is partly invisible and still creeps into every aspect of everyday life? The exhibited photo series was produced in 2008 as a commission by the Akademie der Kuenste in Berlin for the exhibition Embedded Art – Art in the Name of Security (spring 2009).

March 23-June 26, 2010

Linn Underhill: Of Someone and Something

Linn Underhill (b. 1936), photographer and associate professor of art and art history at Colgate University, has won critical acclaim for her series of portraits and self-portraits that investigate femininity, social roles, and the process of aging. This is the first retrospective of her work, created since the early 1990s.
