[…]”Thus, the exhibition is composed on one hand by artists whose practice uses the camera as a tool to see the analyzed object structurally rather than as a simple mimetic mechanical image producing an object, with the result becoming another processual layer that creates distance and analysis. Photographic works question the medium’s autonomy by relating to major stances of painting, such as pictoriality or the transcendence of the “mirror with memory,” towards the image as a window. Balanced by a number of artists whose work primarily focuses on the medium of painting, based on questions related to the inherently reductive power of photography, the emotional potential of the camera, the materials that capture light in a physical or chemical trace, or the optical perception issues that the photographic-based image places forward.”
