James Welling: Flowers

Testi: Bratton Denise, Tillman Lynne. pagg. 64; rileg. rigida.
Editore: David Zwirner, 2007.

In Flowers, Welling continues to work with photograms of flowers, a project he began in 2004. The most recent Flowers are larger in scale and have a greater range of colors than those in past works. To produce these works, Welling placed small, irregularly-shaped color filters behind the negative as he printed the images. In an interview with the artist, novelist/critic Lynne Tillman notes that these flowers argue for a present-ness of the photograph. Rather than pointing to a specific moment in the past, these nearly-abstract images encourage the viewer to discover new meanings while in the presence of the work.
