In PhotoDimensional, photography becomes sculptural through Heather Mekkelson's recreations of disaster photographs; lifelike in Bettina Hoffmann's video rotating around a still breakfast table; and playful in Vik Muniz's document of the modern sculpture recreated from dust collected at the Whitney Museum of American Art. Although the most dynamic material in this mixed-media group exhibition sprawls across the main level, it's worth a trip up the stairs to see the prints of Pello Irazu and French photographer Laurent Millet, which bring to mind the illustrations of M.C. Escher.
