  LOT #27 Barbara Ciurej and Lindsay Lochman
  Marshmallow Chasm, 2014
  Archival pigment print

  $800-$1,000
  
  The photographs of Barbara Ciurej and Lindsay Lochman straddle the heroic and the commonplace. The upper rounded corners of Marshmallow Chasm recall nineteenth-century photography. In particular, Ciurej and Lochman had in mind Carleton Watkins (1829-1926), whose sublime views of the American West influenced the establishment of the first national parks while also being co-opted by proponents of Manifest Destiny. The bathos of Marshmallow Chasm reminds viewers to question the intent behind intoxicating views of nature.
