Authors in Conversation

Yancey Richardson Gallery’s exhibition « Celebrating 30 Years » brings together all of the gallery’s artists and estates, fostering a dialogue of affinities across diverse practices.

To celebrate its anniversary, the gallery invited its artists to choose works by peers they feel a creative kinship with, resulting in a dialogue across styles and generations. Classic darkroom prints appear alongside experimental, cross-disciplinary works, reflecting the gallery’s view of photography as a fluid, ever-evolving exchange of ideas.

The show bridges the lyrical intimacy of Mark Steinmetz with Guanyu Xu’s spatial interventions, Tseng Kwong Chi’s performative portraits, and the quiet research on shape and color of Mary Ellen Bartley. The long list of authors includes names like Sebastião Salgado, Zanele Muholi, Carolyn Drake.
