Item description from seller

79 pages, illustrations (chiefly colour); 23 cm. Catalogue of an exhibition held at the University Galleries, Florida Atlantic University, Boca Raton, November 20, 2014 to February 28, 2015. Firm binding, clean inside copy. *** "'Altarations: Built, Blended, Processed' is an exhibition featuring contemporary artists that blend photographic images and processes to produce works that celebrate, contradict and undermine photographic traditions through altered images and references. The title of the exhibition, 'Altarations', is derived from Mark C. Taylor's 'Altarity'--An anthology of Taylor's writing that brings together his interpretation and synthesis of modern philosophies in analytical discussions of difference and otherness. 'Altarations: Built, Blended, Processed' has a much narrower focus than artists who manipulate photographic images. The exhibition focuses upon artists whose photo-based works are strategically built through combining, blending and processing images that strongly veer towards formal abstraction while also systematically doubling down on visual and social aspects of contemporary image making technologies and phenomena. The works in 'Altarations' reflect on contemporary image making, consumption and proliferation as well as how the latter seemingly permeates every corner of contemporary life.
