Filter Photo is pleased to announce two exhibitions opening in the month of February: Furtive, a three-person exhibition featuring the work of Daniel Hojnacki, Karolis Usonis, and Krista Wortendyke at the Chicago Cultural Center‘s Michigan Avenue Galleries and Life Stand Still Here, a solo exhibition featuring the work of Rafael Soldi at Filter Space gallery.

Curated by Jennifer Murray, Furtive is a photography-based exhibition that explores the complexity of memory, both personal and collective. Through an examination of place, archive, and the intersection of perception and knowing, artists Daniel Hojnacki, Karolis Usonis, and Krista Wortendyke ask us to reconsider what we think we know based on our past experiences, communal knowledge and memories. By using photography as a conceptual tool rather than an objective medium for documentation, these artists are able to examine and question our collective use of photography in the making of both memories and histories.
