In Witness, stylistic elements and energies summon a deep experience, heightened by the photographer “embedded” within the work--bearing witness. Graham Nash, at his 2012 opening, exhibited collages inviting dialogue on our times. At AIPAD 2010, Bill Eppridge presented his historic Robert F. Kennedy photograph that survived a fire. At NYPH 2010, Victor Vazquez's photograph of doomed men suggests we are all one. JoAnna Johnson’s handsewn empty dresses poignantly summon women throughout time, at the 2009 Chelsea opening. And Yu Xiao (AIPAD 2012) takes child as theme, admitting she is both creator and the child in the work who does not want to grow up.
