‘I think that a fictional mise-en-scène can be more truthful than documenting reality, especially in an age of fake news.’
– Miles Aldridge, 2019
Christophe Guye Galerie presents a new exhibition of works by acclaimed British photographer and artist Miles Aldridge, entitled Screenprints, Polaroids and Drawings.
The exhibition focuses on the artists’ recent exploration of the medium of screenprinting as a new way of depicting his photographic images. Aldridge’s hyper-coloured work is well known for its cinematic depictions of the strange and surreal in modern life. In this exhibition, Aldridge’s vernacular of noir beauty is further emphasized through the screenprinting process, which allows a new heightened colour, as well as a print texture nostalgically reminiscent of pin-up magazines and pulp fiction book covers.
