Joanne Teasdale, Abstracted, 2009
pigment print on acrylic, 26.5 x 18.5 x .625 inches (installed)
Spanning three media—painting, photography, and kilnformed glass—Joanne Teasdale’s Imprints guides viewers through the chandelier-bedecked halls of the Rodin Museum in Paris and into dilapidated buildings filled with cobwebs, shadows and perhaps even ghosts. The work is at its most elegiac in the artist’s still lifes of diaphanous nightgowns floating in water and her photographs of children fused into apothecary jars. The combination of presence and absence, containment and ethereality, gives the work a haunting quality that allows the show to cohere across all three media. - RICHARD SPEER
