James Casebere in Paradise Lost- An Atypical Exhibition of Architecture

American artist James Casebere is known for his constructed photography—photos of self-made architectural models with dramatic lighting. The rational, calm and distanced images without any human trace are inviting the audience to put themselves into the scenes. Colorful houses are from the wonderful time before the subprime mortgage crisis. Applying water around buildings as a motif, the artist recalls the flooded underground tunnels between the East and West Germany, and the course of slavery in the past. It is his lament to the lost historical memory. In this exhibition, we are seeing James Casebere’s works of different contexts that he has accumulated for years. The models are also presented in Taiwan for the first time.
