James Casebere

Since the early 1980s the American artist has been making photographs of miniature constructions of the built environment, with images ranging from suburban interiors to institutional structures. Casebere is interested in the point at which photography, architecture and sculpture intersect. He was one of the first “post modern” artists to become known for creating images for the camera, a methodology currently being explored by photographers like Gregory Crewdson and Thomas Demand. This exhibition, organized by the Southeastern Center for Contemporary Art (Winston-Salem North Carolina) highlights the cimematic significance of the emotionally charged work.
