	CBC.ca Arts - MoMa retrospective celebrates Canadian photo artist Jeff Wall
		The cinematic oeuvre of Canadian photographer Jeff Wall is being celebrated in a new retrospective opening this weekend at New York's prestigious Museum of Modern Art.
		In the late 1970s, Wall began creating the large-format, film-like images for which he has become renowned: detailed, carefully composed scenes he captures on transparency film, which he then mounts on lightboxes that light the images from behind.
		Wall's images are held in collections around the world.

	jeff wall: the sharper image (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		With this show, Wall may finally get the attention he deserves: At 50, he is among the most accomplished and influential photographic artists of his generation, but the audience for his work has thus far been broader inside the art world than out of it, and more receptive in Europe than on his native continent.
		And whatever their content, Wall's pictures have an uncanny ability to walk a very fine line between the obviously artificial and the perfectly natural: Everything in them is carefully staged, but the result feels like a heightened realism, a style more authentic than much of what usually passes for documentary.
		Wall sometimes refers to what he does as cinematography, a word that captures his work's drama and luminousness, but not its extraordinary depth; for that, only classical painting serves as the proper precedent.

		The Jeff Wall exhibition at MOCA at California Plaza is an exploration of contemporary issues using traditional formal elements.
		Wall includes a wide variety of subjects in his work: female art restorers, Asian youth on the street, and Asian workers in a fabrics sweat shop, homeless, the word "stereo" in large graphic letters, urban landscapes, and contemporary middle class interiors.
		Jeff Wall's exhibit at MOCA is a sophisticated, stimulating, and approachable look at formalism that is engaging and stimulating.

		The MUMOK is presenting, for the first time in Austria, a comprehensive overview of the work of Canadian photographer Jeff Wall.
		Quite deliberately, the Viennese exhibition attempts to modify the cliché of Wall as a "painter of modern life", demonstrating, instead, his intense preoccupation with the history and the representational conventions of the medium of photography.
		Wall's more reflective relationship with details, formats, camera angles and forms of presentation as photographic ways of constituting meaning aims at taking a questioning look behind the facade of visual representation.

	LANDSCHAPPEN, AUGUST SANDER & JEFF WALL
		Walls landschappen zijn, evenmin (en zelfs nog beduidend minder) als die van Sander pittoresk, ze moeten veeleer gelezen worden als mogelijke studies van de wijze waarop een ‘landschap’ geconstrueerd wordt.
		In de vroege jaren ’80 maakt Jeff Wall zijn eerste landschappen en hoewel er thematische parallellen met de Nieuwe Topografen aan te stippen zijn, gaat zijn werk formeel een heel andere richting uit.
		Wall: “Voor mij draagt het landschap als genre ertoe bij de afstand zichtbaar te maken, die we tussen elkaar moeten bewaren, om zo bij elkaar te kunnen vaststellen, wat we, onder zich voortdurend wijzigende omstandigheden, lijken te zijn”.

	Jeff WALL : Essai de Nicole Gingras
		The liquid intelligence summarized by Jeff Wall is a "medium" — the vehicle by which the different stages of an image’s metamorphosis or transformation are preserved.
		It is not surprising to find Jeff Wall fascinated by the mobility inherent in water — a paradoxical element if there is one, both transparent and reflective, a little like photography.
		Jeff Wall conceived this photograph so the mirror retains the image and is simultaneously transparent and reflective.

	Jeff WALL : Essai de Nicole Gingras
		Jeff Wall’s images have this ambivalent presence: they bear this relationship to the instant, and then, to duration.
		From the image as fetish (photograph), Jeff Wall seems to avoid staging fetishism (film) to develop what now, with time, is interpreted as a fetishistic relationship to staging.
		With great economy, lucidity and clairvoyance, Jeff Wall here signals the revelatory power of reality over the observer and, at the same time, suggests that looking might primarily be a matter of montage, the product of endless, seamless associations.

		The exhibition, which will include a series of related works, is engaged in representing the marginal, the enigmatic moments and stories within the everyday, continuing a direction that has been at the core of Jeff Wall's oeuvre.

		Five of eight works (all dated 2003) in Jeff Wall's recent exhibition of color transparencies mounted on lightboxes seemed more concerned with the immediacy of circumstances than with the composed, labor-intensive mise-en-scenes for which he is best known.
		Wall invites readings of the new works suggested by their quasi-documentary nature, without exception enhanced by the daylike illumination of his signature lightboxes on which they are presented.
		An arrow penciled on the wall points toward the hole, and through some ordinary miracle of light, the space between outer and inner wall is illuminated with burnished gold and red.

	Jeff Wall merges mundane with the bigger picture - The Boston Globe
		Jeff Wall's photographs are just that, wall photographs: the pursuit of murals by other means.
		Wall has spoken of his profound regard for cinematic Neorealism, a regard borne out in the mundane subject matter of so many of his pictures.
		Neorealism is a fl-and-white genre, of course, and Wall's affinity for its content clashes with his general reliance on color.

	SurfWax: News, Reviews and Articles On Jeff Wall
		If Jeff Wall sees something extraordinary - men running through the suburbs with rifles, a family being violently evicted from their home - he doesn't stop and take a photograph.
		The boys breaking through a hedge in Jeff Wall illuminated box (the size of a small RV) look like they have been caught in the act by the camera, but the too-good-to-be-true quality suggests that we're dealing with the seamless montage of Photoshop (we are).
		Jeff Wall, at Marian Goodman, is still super-sizing his light-box transparencies, but his staged images are less operatic, less obviously contrived, and his still lifes (a bloody rag, a grimy wall, a ragged hole in wooden siding) are no less fraught and ominous for their cool restraint.

		Clark: “(...) I am questioning this notion of the isolated, hypnotically powerful, controlled work of art as a means to entrench the image as part of a certain régime of art.
		Terwijl Clark en collega’s in de jaren ’60 verworven inzichten tot dogma’s laten verstenen, blijft Wall intellectueel en artistiek in beweging.
