24 CITY NOVEMBER 13-19, 2013
itch of piecing back together the meanings behind Broomberg/Chanarin and Jude’s image collections is at first greater than the desire to examine how the images stand alone, or what story they may collectively tell. In the winter of 1958, Charles Starkweather
and 14-year-old Caril Ann Fugate murdered 10 people, including Fugate’s family, over a three-day period across the state of Nebraska. This is the tragic series of events that inspired Christian Patterson’s “Redheaded Peckerwood” project and book of the same name. Patterson’s archive reads like a deliberate dream state, like walking through the fragmented memories of the incidents themselves, held captive in photographic evidence sourced from the case file, or recreated in scenes staged by Patterson, and in images of pure allusion, pointing toward the places the story guided the artist’s imagination. But Patterson stops short of specifying which are which, though some are easier to detect than others. “I’m interested in history, and whether it can poke through to the present,” Patterson said in an interview with City earlier this month. He says he feels the life contained within the images and objects he’s collected, “charged with the lingering presence” of the events. Though many of the images in the show are quite engaging, a centrally situated, glass-topped case of packages and envelopes tugs at the viewer’s attention like a black hole. Jason Lazarus put out a call for people to send him images that are “Too Hard to Keep” for a project of the same name. After the exhibition, the packages will travel to Chicago, where they will be opened, sorted, and filed among the thousands of others that have amassed over the past three years. I wonder about this small anti-exhibit, still sealed within these few parcels, silently waiting to join a new family of condemned memories. What has been given up, sliced voluntarily from its origins, and why? Do the packages contain letters, explaining stories behind the photographs? It is easy to see how such a project could take on the nature of a confessional. One image used to advertize this opportunity to part with pain is of a seemingly battered young woman with deep bruises, with steely wariness in her blackened eyes. It is not likely that all of the submitted images will be as extreme, as dramatic. Some will seem mundane, yet bear the burden of private significance.
