Andrea Orejarena & Caleb Stein, Abraham Lincoln & Drone, from the series “American Glitch", 2021
Presented by the Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation in collaboration with Amsterdam’s Foam, the exhibition encompasses personal archives, algorithmic fabrications, intimate self-portraits, and politically charged landscapes. What unites these artists is their commitment to expanding the language of photography as they move seamlessly between analog and digital, documentary and staged, truth and fiction.
Andrea Orejarena & Caleb Stein take a similarly speculative approach in American Glitch (2021), capturing real-life U.S. scenes resembling visual errors. Their image Abraham Lincoln & Drone (2021) embodies the eerie familiarity in their project, raising questions about the increasingly fluid boundary between simulation and reality.
