SHAWN THEODORE - Artista interdisciplinar que incorpora fotografia, colagem e escultura para criar ambientes, fotografias e objetos anatomológicos. #shawntheodore (www.shawntheodo.re) #Repost @_xst (@get_repost) ・・・ “A Reminder” 40”x60” 2017, edition of 3. Originally exhibited in historic Elfreth’s Alley, as a part of “Revolutionary Art”, a joint project between @streetsdept and @VisitPhilly. This was the first of the photos I shot and placed in my series #futureantebellum, which I began shooting in the Spring of 2017, after the closing of my inaugural museum exhibition ‘#churchofbrokenpieces’. Church of Broken Pieces (2016) premiered alongside @dawoudbey’s seminal exhibition, ‘Harlem, USA’ at @aampmuseum this past February, 2017, and to say that the honor was singular in nature would be a vast understatement. It was an honor to be aligned with Bey’s groundbreaking work while stepping into then uncharted visual territory. However, it was not planned, it was a calculated risk that I took. I gambled with my first opportunity at a museum exhibition to step away from the #streetphotography series for which I became well known for (The Avenues) to showcase and explore my interpretation of conceptual African American street photography. The museum staff was surprised at the unveiling of the first three works (those being the #aarondouglas inspired tryptic ‘The Judgement Day’, which exhibited during 2016 @prizmartfair) because, frankly, they expected street photography documenting scenes that would create a conversation between the world of #DawoudBey’s #Harlem to our present day #Philadelphia. My calculated risk was to create an African American mythology, taking place in front of our very eyes, masquerading and blending in with reality on the same stage/plane as contemporary street photography. The risk, thankfully, paid off. The exhibition drew huge crowds of people who came from all over the globe, received critical praise, and set my journey into fine art photography in motion. The majority of the exhibition can be seen at @richardbeaversgallery until 11/19 before it heads to its next destination… (Continued Below) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByG6y7XJffI/?igshid=1vok37dorxzxt
