Vik Muniz vs. Dow Jones
Vik Muniz (Brazilian, b.1961) is
a Contemporary visual artist best
known for creating witty, bold,
and often deceiving photographs
that incorporate unusual
materials such as dust, diamonds,
sugar, ketchup, and wire. Muniz
gained international recognition
in 2001 when he represented
Brazil at the 49th Biennale in
Venice, Italy. Since 2001, Muniz
has consistently outperformed
financial indices such as the Dow
Jones, earning returns of almost
250% in 2011.
With artnet Analytics,
you can benchmark the performance
of top photographers against the
S&P 500, Dow Jones, or other
alternative assets such as gold.

Danziger
Gallery
Since its founding in 1990, the
Danziger Gallery in New York City has established
itself as one of the leading
photography venues in the world,
known for the originality and
diversity of its programming. The
gallery was the first to show
Richard Misrach's Sky pictures,
Abelardo Morell's Camera
Obscuras, Chuck Close and Vik
Muniz's fashion work, and the
work of British "camera-less"
photographers Susan Derges,
Christopher Bucklow, and Garry
Fabian Miller.
Moving last year to a three-room
exhibition space in Chelsea has
afforded the gallery a certain
flexibility in its programming,
allowing it to mount major shows
while also responding quickly to
new artists and the technological
evolution of the medium. Its
programming pulls from the worlds
of art, new media, and print to
create an up-to-date vision of
photography's place in the world.
The exhibitions
Thierry Cohen and
Project Room. Lloyd Ziff. Robert Mapplethorpe and Patti
Smith. 1968-1969
both opened on March 28. In
addition, the Danziger Gallery
will be exhibiting at The AIPAD
Photography Show in April.

Monographs
Gregory Crewdson
“I think I always have been drawn
to photography because I want to
construct a perfect world. I want
to try to create this moment that
is separate from the chaos of my
life, and to do that I think I
create enormous disorder. And I
like that craziness because I
think that it creates almost a
sort of neurotic energy on the
set, and through that there is a
moment of transportation. And in
all my pictures what I am
ultimately interested in is that
moment of transcendence or
transportation, where one is
transported into another place,
into a perfect, still world.
Despite my compulsion to create
this still world, it always meets
up against the impossibility of
doing so. So, I like the
collision between this need for
order and perfection and how it
collides with a sense of the
impossible. I like where
possibility and impossibly meet.”
