Press Release Checklist Infected Landscape Anthony Haughey, Misty Keasler, Atta Kim, Shai Kremer May 18 - June 30, 2006 Infected Landscape presents a group of international artist/photographers who share an interest in recording troubled sites within national territories. Each of them takes a highly individual and aestheticized approach to the issues they address. As Kremer has observed, the exhibition unites "seemingly tranquil landscapes (which have) become infected with the sediments of ongoing conflict." The title for this exhibition is derived from the thesis project of Israeli photographer, Shai Kremer. Subtitled Israel, a Broken Promised Land, Kremer's series of over sixty photographs focusses our attention on the roads that divide as well as navigate the territory in Israel. Atta Kim, an established Korean artist who will open a solo show in June at the International Center of Photography, has created an extensive series entitled On Air - long time exposures of significant sites and events in Korean politics and culture. Presented here is a twelve hour exposure recording the DMZ which separates North from South Korea. Irishman Anthony Haughey's photographs are part of a project titled Disputed Territory in which he explores the issues of identity and nationalism among groups of four European areas that claim the same geography: Northern Island, Bosnia, Kosovo and the Basque country. Texas artist Misty Keasler has recorded the Guatamala city dump in a series which initially appears to present atmospheric mountains but on closer scrutiny reveals itself as the home to families and animals.
