Donna B. Halliburton From the Land of Dreams II, 1985 Selenium toned silver print on paper 12 3/4 x 9 1/4 inches Knoxville Museum of Art, 1986 purchase award from 18th Dulin National Works on Paper Competition Donna Halliburton's photograph on paper is staged. It refers to the traditional pose of a Renaissance portrait. The mask defies not only the idealized beauty of an old-master portrait but also the truthfulness of photograph on papery. The mechanical reproducibility of black and white photograph on papery offers a contrast to the hands-on medium of painting. |
