Uta Barth: In Between Places

Samuel and Althea Stroum Gallery (South Gallery)

November 9, 2000 – January 21, 2001

Compelling in its deceptive simplicity, Uta Barth’s art questions the traditional functions of pictures and our expectations of them. By photographing in ordinary places and in simple rooms and landscapes, Barth uses what is familiar to shift attention from subject matter to a consciousness of the processes of perception and the visceral and intellectual pleasures of seeing. “In Between Places,” the first museum survey of Uta Barth’s career, included seven important projects made between 1989 and 2000, a period during which Barth had gained international acclaim for her ground-breaking work. The first comprehensive book on Barth’s work, “Uta Barth: In Between Places”, accompanied the exhibition.

Sheryl Conkelton, Senior Curator

Generous support for the exhibition and catalogue has been provided by the National Endowment for the Arts, the Lannan Foundation, the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, the Henry Art Gallery’s Kayla Skinner Fund and Contemporary Art Fund, as well as Jodi Green and Mike Halperin and Rebecca and Alexander Stewart.
Organized by the Henry Art Gallery. Exhibition will tour to the Contemporary Art Museum in Houston, TX in May 2001.
