Tel Aviv-born, Los Angeles-based artist Elad Lassry's practice explores the dynamic between between photographic vernaculars, tropes and modes of reception in seductive and unsettling ways. Dealing in a currency of impossibly sharp, colour-saturated photographs, painted frames and sculptural "apertures", Lassry works to activate and make manifest the psychology, nervousness and ways of looking that enshroud the photographic medium. This stunning book – edited by exhibition curator Alessandro Rabottini – documents Elad Lassry’s solo exhibition at the PAC (Padiglione d’Arte Contemporanea) in Milan, Italy. With an essay by Aram Moshayedi (Curator at the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles) and a conversation between the artist and Jörg Heiser (co-editor of Frieze magazine), the book provides an in-depth, critical examination of Lassry’s work since the beginning of his career.
