Shifting the Political: Portraits of Power
The Center for Photography at Woodstock, Woodstock, NY. November - December 2004

The exhibition Shifting the Political: Portraits of Power brought together five artists working in photography who shift attention to places not traditionally instilled with the value of power. Emerging from the philosophy articulated in the phrase “the personal is political and the political is personal,” the artists in Shifting the Political called attention both to locations of political power and the politics of representation.

The exhibition was curated by Ariel Shanberg, featuring work by Gillian Laub (NYC), Tim Lehmacher ( Germany ), Paul Shambroom (MN), & Two Girls Working: Tiffany Ludwig (NJ) & Renee Piechocki (PA).

November 6 - December 19, 2004
