Erica Baum: At the Bureau Art Gallery

I went to this show a while ago, as part of my Thesis class at Parsons, The New School. The exhibition by Baum features two-dimensional pieces, based on photographic abstractions in black and white. Her work explores a contemplative narrative that plays with gender, memories and basic forms, which, in my opinion, reference early learning in childs, which reinforces the concepts of nostalgia and memories.
The curatorial work for Baum's exhibit plays with the scale of the works themselves, as some of the prints are medium to small in size, so certain installation arrangements had to be made in order to construct a logical story, told throughout the photograph fragments of Baum's work. Here some images from Bureau:
