Aperture Foundation and School of Visual Arts have partnered to present a group exhibition of works by alumni of SVA’s BFA Photography Department that explores issues of role-playing and identity in the twenty-first-century. In Identity Identities (i / i), curated by Stephen Frailey, chair of the BFA Photography Department at SVA, eleven promising young artists explore the various permutations of identity in today’s rapidly changing world through the fluid and evolving medium of photography that is perhaps best suited to tackle this subject.

Artists include: Allison Yeskel, Joseph Sbarro, Jennifer Lee, Hugo Fernandes, Jess Shaffer, Nicola Kast, Victoria Hely-Hutchinson, Jing Quek, Kelly Clark, Anula Maiberg, Susanne Persson.

Opening Reception:
Thursday, July 30, 6:00—8:00 pm

Exhibition on view:
Friday, July 31—Thursday, August 20, 2009
