Visible Fictions

Drawn from the Collection, Visible Fictions: Photography and Artifice challenges the idea that photography records reality impartially. Through staged scenes, constructed environments, performed identities, and invented narratives, the featured artists present photography as a medium of invention rather than straightforward documentation. With works by Sophie Calle, Renée Cox, Gregory Crewdson, Thomas Demand, Tania Franco Klein, Nikki S. Lee, Cindy Sherman, Laurie Simmons, and others, the exhibition explores how photographs shape, rather than simply reflect, the world around us.
