A look at Spokane native Eva Kaiser’s fantastical photography.
“PICTURING NORMAL” CONTINUED... behind a building on which a tree is painted. Combined, Graham and Stone offer a contemporary spin on the narrative traditions of photographers like Diane Arbus and Lee Friedlander, who since the 1950s gave us humans at their most interesting — just being human. By contrast, EVA, a volume of images of and by Spokane native Eva Kaiser, offers images never intended to present themselves as art, according to exhibition organizer Tom O’Day. EVA documents Kaiser’s self-transformation through makeup, clothing, and hairstyle. “There were times I’d see her and not even recognize her,” says O’Day of Kaiser. EVA represents a generational shift in attitudes towards photography, from comparatively modest numbers of printed objects to a virtual,
image-saturated world. And by juxtaposing the large-format images by nationally known photographers Graham and Stone against the mostly snapshot-sized EVA images, O’Day adds another layer of complexity to the exhibit. He notes that Kaiser’s impulse to document comes from the same place as that of Stone and Graham. “At what point do people decide they’re artists?” asks O’Day, who views the exhibition as a valuable teaching tool, not only for SFCC students but the community at large. “Bordering the Surreal” • Oct. 24-Nov. 22 • SFCC Art Gallery • Fine Arts Building #6, 3410 W.
