ABOUT UTA'S WORK
Uta Barth is an artist whose evocative, abstract photographs explore the nature of vision and the difference between how a human sees reality and how a camera records it. In contrast to documentary and confessional modes of photography, Barth intentionally depicts mundane or incidental objects in nondescript surroundings in order to focus attention on the fundamental act of looking and the process of perception. In white blind (bright red) (2002), she investigates both literal and metaphorical modes of perception in ghostly compositions that mimic the afterimages that persist in one’s visual memory after turning away from an object. Her recent series, …and to draw a bright, white line with light (2011), marks the first time Barth has intervened in the staging of her photographs. By manipulating curtains in her home, she created lines and curves of light that expand from a sliver to a wide ribbon across a sequence of large-scale, dramatically cropped images that evoke the subtle passage of time while also highlighting the visceral and intellectual pleasures of seeing. As Barth continues to expand her photographic practice to probe the theme of perception in new and inventive ways, she is encouraging viewers to reconsider the traditional functions and expectations of the photographic image.

BIOGRAPHY
Uta Barth received a B.A. (1982) from the University of California at Davis and an M.F.A. (1985) from the University of California at Los Angeles. She is professor emeritus at the University of California at Riverside, where she was a professor in the Department of Art from 1990 to 2008. Her photographs have been exhibited at such national and international venues as the Art Institute of Chicago, the Museum of Modern Art, the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art, the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, and the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao.

关于乌塔的作品
乌塔-巴特是一位艺术家，他那令人回味的抽象照片探索了视觉的本质，以及人类如何看待现实和相机如何记录现实之间的差异。与纪实性和忏悔性的摄影模式不同，巴特故意在不显眼的环境中描绘平凡或偶然的物体，以便将注意力集中在观看的基本行为和感知的过程上。在《白盲（鲜红）》（2002年）中，她在幽灵般的构图中研究了感知的字面和隐喻模式，这些构图模仿了一个人在转身离开一个物体后持续存在于视觉记忆中的残影。她最近的系列作品《......用光画一条明亮的白线》（2011年）标志着巴特首次介入她的摄影作品的舞台。通过操纵她家里的窗帘，她创造了光线的线条和曲线，这些线条和曲线从一丝丝扩展到一条宽阔的丝带，横跨一系列大规模的、戏剧性裁剪的图像，唤起了时间的微妙流逝，同时也强调了视觉的内涵和智力的乐趣。随着巴特继续扩大她的摄影实践，以新的和创造性的方式探索感知的主题，她正在鼓励观众重新考虑摄影图像的传统功能和期望。
