For these series Broomberg \u0026amp; Chanarin used the interiors of commercial photography studios across the United States as its ostensible subject. The artists reject the foreground and instead highlight the space in which images are literally ‘made’. In these occasionally abstract photographs the surfaces of walls, floors and ceilings junction along straight lines and parabolic curves to create the unspoiled white space known in the photography industry as Cycloramas. Broomberg \u0026amp; Chanarin refer to these spaces as ‘scenography for a free market economy’ or simply ‘landscapes’. For just as the American West came to represent unbound possibility in the minds of early pioneers, these studio walls act as a blank screen on which any sort of fantasy may be projected.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWorks from these series were exhibited in Foam during the exhibition \u003ci\u003ePrune – Abstracting Reality\u003c\/i\u003e in September-December 2009, curated by Kathy Ryan, Director of Photography at \u003ci\u003eThe New York Times Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the photographers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAdam Broomberg (b. 1970, South Africa) and Oliver Chanarin (b. 1971, United Kingdom) are a London-based artistic duo.
