Andrew Mer aka BigFusss: Agog

Steven Kasher Gallery is delighted to present an exhibition of photographs mounted at Mitchell Algus Gallery, 132 Delancey St., NYC from January 16th through February 1st.

Active in the artworld since moving to New York over 30 years ago, Fusss is exhibiting his photographs for the first time.  The 30 images chosen for this exhibition, shot 2020 to present, map New York City by day and by night. The city seduces Fusss. He stands agog, full of intense desire, ardent, camera at the ready.  

BigFusss created his pictures via Instagram. He is our Instagram flâneur, our IG urban observer.  You may have seen BigFusss traversing the city, phone glued to his ear. As he takes his meetings while walking he stops to shoot that special something that captures his eye. His eye is trained in film editing, trained to pick out salient moments.

In a Fusss picture real things shatter, dissolve, become translucent, lose their fixed identity. They re-form as a glimpse of magic or a magical glimpse. No need to believe in ghosts to be haunted here, haunted by a past, a present, a future that do and don’t exist.

This exhibition brings together longtime friends and talented forces; Fusss credits Steven Kasher and Mitchell Algus for decades of training his eye, knowledge, and passion for art and photography.
