Featuring works by some 45 artists, Ordinary Pictures surveys a range of practices through the lens of the stock photograph and other forms of industrial image production. Spanning generations and movements—from 1960s avant-garde film and Pictures Generation appropriation to more recent collage, rephotography, and video work—the exhibition also considers contemporary art’s own function as an ever-expanding global image economy.
