“...True Pictures? responds to this state of affairs by presenting a more open view of contemporary photography in North America. In line with the artistic emancipation of photography in Europe, this exhibition identifies the late 1970s as a starting point for a fundamental shift in the understanding of photography in North America. The pictorial form of the large-format tableau was “invented,” used for the first time by Jeff Wall with his lightboxes. This exhibition focuses on the work of artists born between 1946 and 1989 and on the diverse, far-reaching consequences of this new understanding of photography.”
