Justine Kurland's compelling photographs address themes of adolescence, the American landscape, and private dreams of community, hidden behind tough exteriors and blank faces. Relatively large-scale and often theatrically composed, Kurland's images position their subjects together in forsaken corners of forgotten fields, forests, highway underpasses, lakes, and beaches. Spending as much as nine months out of the year on road trips, she searches out rather than stages her narratives, exploring the in-between spaces where identity and function begin to slip ambiguously into freedom.

New York-based artist Justine Kurland (born in Warsaw, New York, 1969) has exhibited widely in the United States and in Europe, including solo shows at the Museum of Contemporary Photography, Chicago, and at Emily Tsingou Gallery, London. Her work has been featured in major publications, including Artforum, Art in America, the New York Times, the New Yorker, and Vogue. Kurland’s photographs are held in several public collections, such as the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum of Art, Whitney Museum of American Art, and the International Center of Photography, New York.

Justine Kurland @ Danzinger Projects

Work from Justine Kurland's excursions to the Pacific Northwest with her signature group scenes are currently on view at Danzinger Project in New York through April 5th, 2008. Reminiscent of Gauguin but with a very distinct feminine & contemporary approach, Kurland again shows herself to be a major voice in contemporary photography.
