Anaphora: Repeated forms and configurations have been employed in art from ancient times. We see this in art inspired by ancient architectural patterns all the way up to the development of serialization in mid-20th Century Op and Pop Art. Repetition of patterns creates rhythms and fosters new ways of seeing or interpreting form. Upstream Gallery encourages photographers to submit work exploring this idea. The exhibition will open on Thursday, February 6th 2025 at our gallery in Hastings-on-Hudson NY.
