“No Man’s Land” by Gary Duehr
at Bromfield Gallery in March
The ambiguous territory of modern airports is the subject of Gary Duehr’s photographic installation at Bromfield Gallery, February 29 – March 31. The opening reception is Friday, March 2, from 6-830.
In an installation that includes sculpture, a wall-sized triptych, and photographs on aluminum, “No Man’s Land” explores a limbo that is neither here nor there. The gallery becomes a kind of neutral zone.
In the photographs, the runways' vast expanse is interrupted by mysterious signals and markers, as well as by circus-like caravans of luggage carts. The noses of planes loom against plate glass, which reflects the ubiquitous neon of fast food and luxury shops.
And passengers wait in anonymous gray-carpeted holding areas, surrounded by aluminum panels—as if the whole edifice might suddenly take off.

In 2007 Gary Duehr was chosen as a Best Emerging Artist in New England by the International Association of Art Critics. In 2003 Duehr received an Artist Grant in photography from the Massachusetts Cultural Council, and his work has been featured in museums and galleries including the Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston, MA; Exit Art, Umbrella Arts, and New York Arts, New York, NY; Gallery Tsubaki, Tokyo, Japan; SKC Gallery, Belgrade, Yugoslavia; and Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes, Havana, Cuba. Past awards include grants from the LEF Foundation and the Rockefeller Foundation.
His public artworks include a photo installation funded by the Visible Republic program of New England Foundation for the Arts, and a commission from the MBTA (Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority) for a permanent photo installation at North Station.
