Use Me Abuse Me

Use Me,
Abuse Me

Use Me, Abuse Me explores questions on how images and image-making technology influence artists and photographers. Anyone, it seems, has the freedom to do pretty much anything. This glut sees photographers experimenting with pre-existing images and using them within their own work like never before. Photographs are variously collected, reinterpreted, cut, copied, pasted and generally abused.

Amongst them are Ruth Van Beek, Batia Suter, Paul Kooiker, Lucas Blalock, Linus Bill, Renato Leotta, Gwon Osang, Marcel Gaehler, Eva-Fiore Kovacovsky, Claudia Sola, Asha Schechter, Joachim Schmid, Chantal Rens, Sanja Médic and Thomas Mailaender.
