Not In Your Face By Susan A. Barnett

I was included in the "Big Picture" exhibition at P.S.1. My photographs were shown at Rhona Hoffman Gallery, Chicago. I went back to school to study Graphic Design and computer based photography (early Photoshop) at the School of Visual Arts, New York where I studied with Milton Glaser and Paul Davis.
From 1996, in my series "After Neon" I photographed the vanishing world of neon lights in the streets of Manhattan and the boroughs. That series has earned me finalists spots at IPA, Photographers Forum and the The Gallery of Art & Design. I exhibited this work at Soho Photo in Tribeca, Capital One Corporate Gallery, Richmond VA, Artspace, Richmond VA and Kkien Atlier, Milan, Italy.
My next series is taken on the streets of New York and LA for "Not In Your Face". These images were published on PDN Photo of the Day, Nerve.com and Aline Smithson's Lenscratch. The book "Not In Your Face", 64 images in full color will appear this year from the publisher Silas Finch, New York. The project will be featured in Popular Photography Magazine and online in May 2010.
