Stock Images Of War (trailer)

Stock Images Of War Amalia Ulman 2015 Opening the 11th of January James Fuentes 55 Delancey Street, New York, NY 10002 Stock Images Of War is a solo exhibition by Amalia Ulman about our lack of empathy, how we torture each other and how war is adulthoods favorite game. In a global community of emotions, war is gossip, torture is a parallel act of deconstruction and images serve the function of heavy artillery. Cherry Picker, Sherwood Forest, Pink Rose, Night Blossoms Becoming a log: logging in, logging out. When narcissism becomes a stratagem we need mirrors to learn our poses, to attract and seduce like England does with a third world country. Being more specific, what is it that you will see at Stock Images of War. In the dark, only illuminated by spotlights, hugged by black polyester draperies, a series of augmented wire figures produced during confinement will weakly find their place in the empty room, constantly fighting to stand their ground, maybe hesitating between standing and laying down.
