Cameraless photography is well-represented in the ingenious ‘Full Circle’ (estimate $25/35,000) by Susan Derges and Wolfgang Tillmans’ vibrant ‘mental picture #65’ (estimate $50/70,000), created by placing colored string lights on the light sensitive photographic paper. Although the human brain naturally struggles to find reason and narrative within an abstract image, Tillmans’ intention is simply that color and shape be used as a mode of expression, devoid of agenda.
MICHAEL DWECK: 15 YEARS ON VIEW 29 SEPTEMBER – 2 OCTOBER
In 2003, Sotheby’s presented a large exhibition of photographs by Michael Dweck, the first such event for the photographer. The Sotheby’s exhibition showcased Dweck’s major body of work celebrating the local fishing and surfing subculture of Montauk, New York. Dweck's profound affection for the Ditch Plains community and his adept technical skill led to the publication of his first monograph, The End: Montauk, N. Y., long since out of print. Fifteen years after the first exhibition, Sotheby’s is pleased to again present the photographs of Michael Dweck in a retrospective selling exhibition, with works available for immediate private sale. In addition, two standout works by the artist, Sonya, Poles (Montauk) (estimate $50/70,000) and The Duke’s Mermaid (from Sculptural Forms) (estimate $40/60,000) will be featured in the Contemporary Photographs auction.
