The Renaissance Society presents a limited edition photo portfolio featuring work by twelve artists who were given solo exhibitions by the museum: Darren Almond, Lothar Baumgarten, Jean-Marc Bustamante, Willie Doherty, Stan Douglas, Fischli/Weiss, Rodney Graham, Arturo Herrera, Zoe Leonard, Laura Letinsky, Thomas Struth, and Jeff Wall. The portfolio is curated by former Executive Director and Chief Curator Susanne Ghez.
The prints are unique to this collection, and in most cases reflect the artist's practice around the time he or she worked with the Renaissance Society. The aesthetic breadth and perspectival diversity of the photographs included make this portfolio a striking survey of the medium's recent history, and represent the institution's consistent address of the form.
Works in the portfolio include:
Darren Almond, The Big Day, 1970
Lothar Baumgarten, Track Structure Texas & Pacific El Paso, Bassetts Mills Ave. Railroad Yard, 1989
Jean-Marc Bustamante, N°38, 1980
