Liminal Ground: Adam Bartos Long Island Photographs, 2009-2011 June 24, 2012

The exhibition will bring together sixteen lush and evocative pigment prints in a large-scale format that nonetheless remains photographic in scale. In his work on Long Island, a telling detail can furnish the tone of the work: the elegant script of the faded word "Florist" on a concrete block wall on County Road 80 in Southampton; the rusted chassis of a derelict pick-up truck in Greenport; a weathered and ramshackle ladder in Bay Shore. A native New Yorker, Bartos grew up spending weekends and summers in Huntington, Long Island, and now lives and works in New York City and East Hampton.
