Elad Lassry considers each of his photographic objects to be 'something that's suspended between a sculpture and an image.' The four works offered here date from Lassry's breakthrough moment in the late 2000s and early 2010s when he began to place lacquered frames in conversation with photographic images. Lassry appropriated images from vintage magazines and film archives or took his own photographs that he imbued with a commercial, advertisement-like aesthetic, and usually printed them on standard 11-by-14-inch paper.
