MONA KUHN – KINGS ROAD

Posted on 2023-05-08

Mona Kuhn’s multidisciplinary Kings Road combines the artist’s characteristic study of form — both human and architectural — with her emerging use of video installation and solarized silver gelatin to create a wholly immersive and partially imagined investigation of Rudolph Schindler’s groundbreaking 1922 residence. Icons pairs influential early fashion photographer George Hoyningen-Huene with one of the most celebrated contemporary photographers within this tradition, Bastiaan Woudt. The influence of Surrealism — direct for George Hoyningen-Huene, who worked with Man Ray and photographed for Elsa Schiaparelli; material for Kuhn, whose solarized prints borrow their method from Ray, Lee Miller, André Breton, and others; and referential for Woudt, in his experimental blending of elements of Surrealist and mid-century fashion photography with 21st century technique — haunts each of the exhibition spaces.
