The Buffalo AKG Art Museum is currently showing “Adam Fuss: Visual Resonance,” the artist’s first museum show in more than 10 years. The exhibition will remain on view in the museum’s Hemicycle Gallery through Sept. 29.
Adam Fuss (British, born 1961) works with early photographic processes and camera-less techniques to capture one-of-a-kind images. He is known for taking up nineteenth-century innovations in the medium, such as the photogram, which is made by placing objects on light-sensitive paper, with breathtaking results. In this way, Fuss subverts the primacy of the camera and celebrates the print as an independent object. By their very nature, his images capture an aspect of reality that is otherwise fleeting.
