...exhibit at the Howard Yezerski Gallery, Gary Schneider is trying to find out. A striking series of seven small and four large toned silver gelatin photographic prints reveals the contours of children’s hands and mouths in all their complexity. The symmetric, proportioned limbs and lips of traditional painting give way to ethereal, x-ray-like forms, each as unique as the fingerprints they highlight. These works build on Schneider’s previous experiences at the intersection of science and art, in which he produced extremely detailed portraits of parts of his own body, including a hair...
Snug in bubble wrap, packing peanuts and tissue paper, the utensils and gadgets that fill Julia Child’s drawers and cabinets will travel to the museum. As soon as they hit the loading dock in Washington, the boxes will go straight to an exhibit room where museum workers will unpack them in full public view.

...historical reconstruction will build an exact replica of the kitchen’s walls and windows at the museum. Engineers from Canada will offer their advice on how to transport the range. All told, 20 people will work on the move and the eventual cost of a full-fledged exhibit will be around half a million dollars...
...later chapters of his work, Dawkins introduces, almost as an afterthought, an idea that has become its own, albeit partially disowned, field. Dawkin’s thesis is simple: wherever there are self-replicating “things” of any sort that exhibit 1) heritibility of traits, 2) variation, and 3) differential reproductive success, that Darwinian evolution is the inevitable logical outcome. In other words, given these three criteria, survival of the fittest takes over and produces “things” that are more and more suited to their environments. To illustrate his point Dawkins describes...

It is also a show that says much in what it fails to present to the viewer—one sees no sign of any political activity, economic hardship or social turmoil. While deceptively historical, The Look actually reveals how fantastical photography, a medium that is usually assumed to be based in reality...
