Detroit / Pontiac Michigan, 5 March 2007—Cranbrook Academy of Art candidates for Masters of Fine Art (MFA) will show innovative new works in the exhibition “Picture This: New Ideas on Photography” at the Museum of New Art, Detroit / Pontiac Michigan from 9 March through 14 April 2007.
The exhibition will include works from seventeen artists whose research and current studio practice is based out of the Cranbrook photography program headed by artist-in-residence Carl Toth. Works range from prints-on-paper to sculptural pieces that examine the boundless possibilities of contemporary photographic practice.
Picture This: New Ideas on Photography from Cranbrook Academy of Art, shows objects, ideas, and insight that illustrate the program’s philosophy through the collective and individual vision of participating artists.
The photography program at Cranbrook explains: “Utilized, theorized and debated across the full spectrum of culture, photographic images generate a virtual environment of seductive power and formal complexity.

Participating artists include: Brookes Britcher, Christopher Durocher, Michael Glowacki, Sarah Harlan, Christopher Lee, David Lambert, Eric Lubrick, Andrew Maydoney, Michael Mayer, Fabian Morales, Christopher Motta, Michael Newton, Linda Phelps, Tommy Reynolds, Christy Shigekawa, Sarah Trahan, and Takafumi Yato
