October 23, 2009: Leo Koenig Projekte, Flying Pictures
Everything that is visible hides something that is invisible.
-René Magritte
Leo Koenig Inc. Projekte is pleased to present "Flying Pictures," an exhibition of photographs by the artist Daniel Gordon. This coincides with the release of a book of the same name, published by powerHouse Books. In addition, Daniel Gordon’s more recent work is currently on view at the MoMA as part of the exhibit "New Photography 2009."
On the snowy fields of New York's Hudson Valley and on the rocky coasts of the Bay Area in Northern California, artist Daniel Gordon taught himself to fly—if only for 1/125th of a second at a time. The images are both landscapes and documents of a radical performance, for each photograph records the artist’s body hovering in midair. Romantic and piercing, the images convey a fleeting moment of grace, never betraying the Sisyphean task of human flight Gordon had set out for himself.

(September 30, 2009 - January 11, 2010)
New Photography 2009 is a thematic presentation of significant recent work in photography that examines and expands the conventional definitions of the medium. Although the six artists in this installation—Walead Beshty, Daniel Gordon, Leslie Hewitt, Carter Mull, Sterling Ruby, and Sara VanDerBeek—represent diverse points of view, working methods, and pictorial modes ranging from abstract to representational, their images all begin in the studio or the darkroom and result from processes involving collection, assembly, and manipulation. Many of the works are made with everyday materials and objects, as well as images from the Internet, magazines, newspapers, and books. Some of the artists also work in other mediums and their pictures relate to disciplines such as drawing, sculpture, and installation. As traditional photographic techniques are being quickly replaced by digital technologies, the artists included here examine the process and structure of making photographs.
