Many of the photographs are on exhibition for the first time.<\/p>\n<p>Mark Seliger: Listen is in a sense a memento mori, a tribute to his late father. It follows in the tradition of photographers and painters such as Weston, Stieglitz, and C\u00e9zanne who, at a certain age, focus on elegiac studies of the nude, the landscape, and the still life. The pictures are Seliger\u2019s meditations through slow looking. These photographs speak to us metaphorically of the eternal themes of love and death. They pay homage to Seliger\u2019s forebears Brandt, Kertesz, Hosoe, and Penn. The nuanced tones of the platinum palladium convey the rich textures of Seliger\u2019s sensibilities.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.stevenkasher.com\/html\/exhibinfo.asp?exnum=1341\" target=\"_self\"><em>Steven Kasher Gallery<\/em><\/a>, 521 W 23rd St, NYC, 212-966-3978, Jan 27-Feb 26, 2011<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mark Seliger: Listen- an exhibition of personal and evocative photographs by acclaimed contemporary photographer MarkSeliger.<br \/>\nThe exhibition includes 30 large-scale platinum palladium prints depicting nudes, still lifes, portraits, and New York cityscapes.
