Thomas Allen: New Releases
Thomas Allen: New Releases, Jan 11 - Mar 3, 2007 at Foley Gallery in New York, NY. "...Inspired by a View-Master and 'pop-up' books as a child, Allen became interested in recreating these three-dimensional experiences by using old books and pulp fiction paperbacks as still life subjects. Allen gently cuts around the shape of his figures, physically releasing them from their two dimensional surface. They are brought to life from their pages and covers with detailed lighting and a thin focus. Pulled and positioned, their intended drama comes to life. In his newest body of work, Allen explores more detailed narratives involving love triangles and relationships accentuated with moments of voyeurism, homoeroticism, and unrequited love." Also...
