Anthony Goicolea, Mother I Diptych, 2008.Negative is graphite and acrylic on mylar fronted with etched perspex. Positive is c-print. Anthony Goicolea (b. 1971) lives and works in Brooklyn, USA and has for many years been known internationally for his powerful and sinister staged photographic and video works. Depicting groups of pre-pubescent boys, the images are often complex self-portrait montages of the artist himself, enacting situations which call social norms and traditions into question. "Related" is the latest in an ongoing series in which Goicolea uses drawing, photography, sculpture and installation to explore his family history and identity as well as larger themes of ritual, assimilation and alienation.
