Parallel to Anastasia Samoylova's major institutional exhibitions at the Metropolitan Museum in New York and the Saatchi Gallery in London, we are delighted to present her latest series, Image Cities, a photographic journey through some of the world's most prominent metropolises, including New York, Paris, London, Zurich, Tokyo, and Milan. The artist turns her camera towards the publicly visible images that shape the façades of these cities.
Rather than highlighting what makes these places unique, she reveals what they have in common: the menacing and gradual homogenization of consumer culture, emerging from a world increasingly dominated by corporations.
