Miron Zownir: Radical Eye

April 4, 2008—May 3, 2008

In radical eye, Miron Zownir presents a cross section of his b/w photographs from Berlin, New York, and Moscow, in which he unmasks social taboos with a relentlessly direct approach. 'He tests the limits of reality and surpasses the limitations of traditional photography, the separation of idealization on-show and strict documentation in innumerable photo-sessions. The streets of the neon-illuminated concrete-labyrinths are the highways of self-production, the stage of the exhibitionists who are turned on by Zownir’s camera' (Nico Anfuso). Social outcasts of varying shades become distorted, symbolic documents of everyday madness: underground performers, radical artists, criminals, punks, junkies, self-assured prostitutes, or sexual outlaws.
