Eileen Neff: "Things counter, original, spare" at Locks Gallery

January 2009, Philadelphia, PA – Locks Gallery is pleased to present Things counter, original, spare, an exhibition of new photographs by Eileen Neff, on view February 27–March 31, 2009. There will be a reception for the artist on Friday, February 27, 5:30-7:30 pm.

Eileen Neff’s newest photographs of found and altered nature are a continuation of her work in digital construction and abstraction. In Things counter, original, spare, Neff’s photographs reflect upon and pull imagery from one another. The layering and repetition of images encourages cross-referencing and offers multiple readings of individual photographs and of the installation as a whole.

Locks Gallery is located at 600 Washington Square South in Philadelphia, PA. Gallery hours are Tuesday through Saturday, 10am to 6pm. For additional information, please contact Locks Gallery at 215.629.1000 voice, 215.629.3868 fax, or info@locksgallery.com.
