"Investigations, an exhibition of photographs by Costas Picadas" 2000-07-19 until 2000-10-25 Queens Museum of Art Queens, NY, USA
The Queens Museum of Art presents Investigations, an exhibition of photographs by Costas Picadas, July 19th through October 25th in the museum’s satellite gallery at the Bulova Corporate Center located in Jackson Heights, Queens. Widely exhibited in Europe, this is Picadas’ first solo exhibition in the United States.
Investigations is a unique compilation of photographs with an unusual origin. Their initial function was to assess and document the legitimacy of insurance claims involving property damage. Picadas manages to create unique imagery filled with artistic charm in his efforts to provide conclusive evidence of such damage, identify cause, and verify the authenticity of the claims.
The exhibition consists of six large scale (40 x 60 and 30 x 40 inches each) color prints in diptychs or triptychs. Although Picadas does not manipulate his photographs in the usual sense, his work can be seen as an extension of the genre of constructed photography that began in the 1980s and is practiced by such artists as Cindy Sherman, Jeff Wall, and Gregory Crewdson. He appropriates existing images, taking them out of their original context, and re-mixes them into fictive narratives.
A native of Greece, Picadas studied at the Ecole National Superieur des Beaux Arts and Ecole du Louvre, both located in Paris. He has displayed his works throughout Europe and has authored two books- Septenaire and Nomades. In addition, one of his works was included in the P.S. 1 exhibition Crisscross.
