May 2010: Flowers (Irises), by Charles Broskoski

May 16, 2010—2 annotations

This issue of Private Circulation features a work by Charles Broskoski (with technical assistance by Timur Si-Qin). Flowers (Irises) is a set of six 8 x 10-inch photographs, which is produced by a camera’s horizontal rotation around a 3-D digital model. The work, which is based on a photograph by Robert Mapplethorpe, can be viewed as drawing, sculpture, or photography. It was in that order that this still life was created. Side-stepping the fraught question of medium-specificity, however, the work belongs and yet does not belong to these categories.
