Description
Diane Arbus is one of the most original and influential photographers of the twentieth century, best known for her stark, documentary style of capturing people outside the boundaries of ordinary society. Arbus's dynamic pictures are given an evocative new life at the Armory in Constellation, an immersive installation that brings together all of the photographs (some still unpublished) from the set of more than 450 prints by Neil Selkirk, a photographer and student of hers and the only person authorized to make prints from her negatives. This unconventional constellation of images allows viewers to find their own path to discover what lies between the pictures, what connects them to each other, and the imperceptible architecture underlying all creations: chance, chaos, and exploration. Marking the largest and most complete showing of her works in New York to date, this unprecedented collection of Arbus’s works provides a diverse and singularly compelling portrait of humanity.
