It takes more than a first glance at Anne Collier's photographs to understand what you're looking at. Books, magazines, and other media sit upon neutral, boldly geometric backgrounds, setting up an uneasy contrast between the found image and the composition. In a new series of prints in the back room at Anton Kern, Collier meditates on women and photography. A book open to a close-up of a woman's eye rests on a black background; nearby, two German photography mags from the '70s betray the prurient undertones of early amateur photography.
