Danziger Gallery is pleased to announce an exhibition of new work by Liz Nielsen. This will be the artist’s first solo exhibition with the gallery. Its title “The Medium” refers both to the ever expanding reach and potential of the photographic medium as well as art’s power as a mystical intervening agency delivering spaces of transcendence.
Liz Nielsen’s work joins and adds to the historical tradition of the photogram – one of the medium’s earliest processes - but one which has enjoyed a renaissance in the worlds of contemporary art and color photography. Simply described, a photogram is an image created without a camera by placing objects or shining light directly onto photographic paper and developing the paper. Each picture is by nature unique - a record of the moment or event created by the artist.
