"A picture never merely represents x, but rather represents x as a man or represents x to be a mountain, or represents the fact that x is a melon. What could be meant by copying a fact would be hard to grasp even if there were any such things as facts..."

fette's gallery is delighted to present (Untitled) u = ____ [ a photographic group show ] featuring the work of 25 artists working internationally.
The idea for this show was to ask each artist to take a self-portrait representing someone else. Each photograph had to be the same size, 11x14 inches and presented in a limited edition of 1 (+3 AP).
A catalogue will be published for the occasion with an introductory essay by Dr. Gomez from the League of Imaginary Scientists.
