FOREIGN BODY — ANTONY CROSSFIELD
OPENING RECEPTION
Thursday, November 5th, 6pm-8pm
KLOMPCHING GALLERY cordially invites you to the opening reception of Foreign Body, the first solo exhibition in the United States of Antony Crossfield.
The artist describes his work as closely related to the manual labor of painting. His artworks comprise of several points of view, of multiple images that are compressed into a single frame of meticulous construction. The illusion of wholeness masks an uncertain and fractured reality, that defies the Cartesian idea of a stable viewpoint. The resulting photographs of the male form are at once unsettling, yet weirdly beautiful. They elicit an intellectual response, but also one that is visceral and even physical.
Antony Crossfield has previously exhibited at the National Portrait Gallery (London), Institute of Contemporary Art (London) and Fulham Palace (London). In 2008, he was the winner of The Independent Photographer's Terry O'Neill Award. He has been published in Eyemazing and Creative Review, amongst others, with an upcoming feature in Hotshoe.
EXHIBITION CONTINUES THROUGH DECEMBER 19, 2009
