The Slow Game by Sebastien Boncy opening at Art League Houston on March 4

The Kenmore presents: The Slow Game by Sebastien Boncy

Curated by Emily Sloan in conjunction with FotoFest 2016 Biennial
On view at Art League Houston, 1953 Montrose Blvd., Houston, TX 77006

Opening reception on Friday, March 4 from 6-9pm, on view through April 9, 2016

This exhibition features a selection of small-scale photographs from the artist’s ever growing and uncategorized archive of photographs that find resolution as sequences, installations, publications and other types of image networks. This new work will take the shape of a game, where the audience is asked Restore the Rules of the Universe by playfully interacting with a set of photographs while teasing out the implications of time both for the medium itself and the bodies manipulating the images.
