About this title

Synopsis

Exploring photography with a painter's eye, Posen has revolved his painting process around the ontology of photography for forty years. In Ellipsis: Dual Vision, his first monograph, the artist comes full circle with a series of 174 paired photographs. Blurring the lines between realism and abstraction, Posen uses the photograph as a poet uses the word, each image acting as both the symbol and subject of a larger idea.
