The Peripheral Space of Photography
by Murat Nemet-Nejat
This new short work explores what separates photography from other artistic media. Nemet-Nejet argues that photographic seeing is not a plastic experience, but a meditative one, built around a relationship between image and words. Through a critique of photographs in the Metropolitan Museum of Art exhibition of 1993, he show repeatedly how the focal points in potographs are often their mistakes (blurs, over or under exposures), and, spatially, are in their peripheries. A profound study of photography.

City Stills
by Laurence Miller
Admirers have called Metzker "an innovator who knows no rules." City Stills confirms this, with Metzker using progressive darkroom techniques and daring collage compositions to suspend concepts of time and place. Whether spliced negatives juxtaposing day anti night, or rapid-fire sequences of objects and people, Metzker's shots transform his subjects into visual patterns: a crowd of wary policemen becomes a study in texture and contrast -- shiny, black leather uniform jackets against smooth, white helmets. Other photographs demonstrate Metzker's magnificent command of light and shade: four figures wait pensively at a bus stop, as though caged in glass, staring boldly into a wedge of bright light; a lone woman stands outside a train station, engulfed in an ominous stripe of inky shadow, with only the white of her necklace and a folded newspaper as talismans to ward off the darkness. Whether the photographs capture people waiting to take action, or people already in motion, Metzker's technique estranges them from the lockstep rhythm of mundane activity and makes them stand still-just for a moment. The result is a series of photographs that demands a reinterpretation of the city, its streetlife, and its inhabitants.
