Paul Graham at Pace: In his most recent series, Paul Graham combines images of rainbows from Western Ireland, a young woman asleep in different beds on the far side of the world, and the facade of a timeworn New York City gold shop, among other things, to collectively consider the ephemeral things we pursue in life: love, wealth, happiness, beauty - the metaphorical pot of gold a the end of the rainbow. His solo exhibition, Does Yellow Run Forever?, is now on view at 510 West 25th Street, New York, through October 4.

Tonight in NYC: Scott Alario’s What We Conjure Opening

Scott Alario is a photographer based between Providence, RI and Alfred, NY. In his series What We Conjure, Alario uses black and white film and a large format camera to picture his wife and children as the cast of a mystical and elegant play. Tonight, Alario’s first solo show in New York opens at Kristen Lorello Gallery on the Lower East Side. We talked about what it means to use your family as subjects, other photographers who have done this, and selling personal photographs as a commodity in the art market.

Harry Gould Harvey IV may sound like the name of an old sailboat pegged as an underdog in a gentleman’s race around the world, but in reality it’s what a family in Rhode Island has been naming their sons for generations. The fifth iteration of that series is a photographer who loves punk, making trap playlists, and playing pranks. Harry’s surreal twists on reality have been compiled in the fantastic books One, Mountain Pass,and Canadian Fruit,as well as in large commercial publications like the Fader, JUKE,and Bloomberg’s Business Week. At a time when it feels like everywhere you look one photo just indiscernibly scrolls into the next, we think his dreamy and ethereal pictures are worth a close read, so we wanted to ask him more about them, even if interviewing someone isn’t very punk.
