Gregory Crewdson is all over the place these days.
An exhibition of his latest series, "Beneath the Roses", at White Cube earlier in the year.
Part of the "The New City: Sub/Urbia in Recent Photography" exhibition currently at the Whitney.
Part of "the real ideal: Utopian Ideals and Dystopian Realities" exhibition at Sheffield Galleries and Museum Trust.
And articles all over the place.
His surreal, David Lynch-esque photographs are cinematic undertakings, usually requiring multiple bodies for extensive and elaborate staging (especially with lighting) and just as much time and effort with computers during "post-production". For me, the payoff is worth it. Not all of his series appeal to my senses, but this latest series hits me just right.
