Todd Hido
Roaming: New Landscapes

September 9 - October 16, 2004
Opening Reception and Book Signing: Thursday, September 9, 6 to 8 p.m.

The Julie Saul Gallery is pleased to announce Todd Hido's first full scale solo exhibition with the gallery, in conjunction with the publication of his third monograph Roaming by Nazraeli Press. The exhibition is designed to create an installation which includes eighteen new color landscape images in various sizes.

This new work is very different in both content and style from his earlier work. There is a woozy slightly hallucinogenic feeling to the landscapes seen through windshields, as if he has suddenly put his foot on the gas pedal and driven into the next day. The sense of a set up film still continues, however there is no staging at all, simply observations made in his car travels through Eastern Washington State, the California Central Valley, Indiana, South Louisiana and beyond.

Hido first caught the attention of the art world with a portfolio published in Artforum magazine in May 1998. Later that summer, he was featured in our summer group exhibition on the theme of suburbia entitled Neighborhood Watch and subsequently had two second gallery shows here, and a solo show with Paul Morris Gallery in 2002. The two previous oversized monographs published by Nazreali Press: House Hunting (2001), and Outskirts (2002) have also contributed to Hido's wide recognition in the art and photography world.

Since 1998 Hido has had fifteen solo exhibitions at commercial galleries and museums, and his work has entered the collections of many public institutions, including The Guggenheim Museum , The New York Public Library, The George Eastman House, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.
