1. Roe Ethridge: Sanctuary
One day Roe Ethridge can be photographing a house on a prairie in the Midwest for his conceptual art and the next he can be in New York City shooting one of the world’s top models for a fashion magazine. His experiences bridging these two worlds inspire much of his art, which investigates how commercial photography, fine art, stock images and social media influence each other—and often intertwine.
At Gagosian, Ethridge is showing new photographs featuring everything from workers in an industrial cleaning facility in New York to seemingly candid shots of his mother.
Roe Ethridge: Sanctuary runs until March 9 at Gagosian, 7/F Pedder Building, 12 Pedder Street, Central; +852 2151 0555; gagosian.com
