Photographs by Reinhart Mlineritsch

Exhibition at Nevada Museum of Art, Reno, Nevada, USA

March to July 2004

The Nevada Museum of Art (NMA) will present Photographs by Reinhart Mlineritsch an exhibition of 25 works by Austrian photographer Reinhart Mlineritsch as part of an ongoing series of presentations based on artists included in the NMA’s Altered Landscape: The Carol Franc Buck Collection.

Reinhart Mlineritsch’s landscapes have a hyper-realistic quality where everyday objects take on mysterious and puzzling dimensions. Scenes from nature were the previous source for his images yet destructive human interventions and the residues of consumer society have increasingly emerged as central themes in his present work. The photographs selected for this exhibition present scenes of mining, bridges, construction sites and industry that examine human presence in the landscape.

GALLERY GUIDE
The exhibition is accompanied by a 28 page catalogue generously underwritten, in part, by Bluml & Kaindl with additional support from the Austrian Cultural Forum.
