© Patrick Smith. Pornic, 2010 — Patrick Smith’s work is in an exhibition at Danziger Gallery in Chelsea titled New Photographers. Patrick Smith (a French photographer with a very English name) observes what he calls “The Leisure Territories” from a distant perspective and with a colorist’s eye. While his work is often compared to the Italian photographer Massimo Vitali, Smith’s pictures are both more expansive and more documentary. Taken from distant views, his humans are viewed much like other creatures in the landscape. His work examines what we seek in these idyllic locations and the light and color that draws people to these different environments. A critical observer of the relationship between the 21st century and its inhabitants, Smith’s photographs invite us to re-consider what constitutes a landscape. Read more about the exhibition here on the gallery’s website. (note: the show is open till February 25)
