Doug Hall might be best known for his work in video, performance, and installation from the late '70s and '80s, notably The Eternal Frame, but since the late 1980s Hall has worked almost exclusively with large-format photography. The images pull from a range of themes and locations - opera house interiors, country highways, leisurescapes, and so on - but are inherently connected by his examination of the urban landscape and its social, cultural, and historical implications in a world that is overwhelmed by globalization.
The fourteen photographs included in this exhibition are largely of settings that might remind us of familiar places we have been, if not the actual places photographed. They urge the viewer to reconsider what constitutes this familiarity by revealing either a deception or an irregularity.
