Martin has sought to bring together artists whose work is an expression of the new visual literacy with which everyone is having to familiarise themselves.<br \/> <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\"><br \/> \u201cThe internet has obviously been a major factor in presenting us with this multitude of images,\u201dacknowledges Martin. \u201cIt\u2019s also interesting to think about how digital photography is changing what we leave behind. What will take the place of the experience of the flea market? In 20 years time, will be picking up smart cards? Our repositories for collecting things are changing \u2013 Flickr is the perfect example of this phenomenon \u2013 and that is also a motivation for this exhibition.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\"> The&nbsp; \u201cgrand master of the genre\u201d, according to Martin, is Joachim Schmid, who set up the Institute for the Reprocessing of Used Photographs as far back as 1990. He memorably invited German citizens to participate in donations to the Institute, warning of the dangers of too many photograph, which \u201cin such quantities increase visual pollution and undermine our thinking power\u2014to say nothing of the moral dangers they pose for our children.\u201d One imagines his tongue was pointing in the general direction of his cheek, but his purpose was at the same time serious.<\/p>\n<p> <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.foto8.com\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/curtis_mann.jpg?resize=470%2C365&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\u00a9 Curtis Mann\" title=\"\u00a9 Curtis Mann\" style=\"width: 470px; height: 365px;\" height=\"365\" width=\"470\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><br \/> <\/span><span class=\"photo_copyright\"><br \/> <\/span> <span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\" class=\"photo_copyright\"><span class=\"photo_copyright\">Curtis Mann &#8211; Remains of a Home<\/span><br \/> <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\"><br \/> Martin has also hunted down the most contemporary work in this exciting genre, in the shape of Curtis Mann\u2019s found photographs, which he then bleaches and distorts until something at once alien and familiar is created. A late addition to the show is the intriguing-sounding work of Hank Willis Thomas, who has been exploring the commodification of Black African American identity by removing the text from advertising images. The viewer is then invited to consider the relation of a watermelon to kitty litter at their leisure<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\" class=\"photo_copyright\">.<\/p>\n<p> <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\"> To bring the show\u2019s concept directly to the audience, another exhibiting artist, Harrell Fletcher, will be greeting visitors, and talking to them about the personal photographs they carry around with them. He will then scan them, print them to a huge 30&#215;40 and turn these precious mementos into a live exhibit. \u201cFamily portrait are such a clich\u00e9,\u201d says Martin, \u201cbut really dear at the same time.
