The perspicacious Mark Feeney has some incredible insights as always. Here are some of my favorite Feeney phrases (the last Morris Louis one is truly super):

Among the virtues of “Keeping Time: Cycle and Duration in Contemporary Photography,” which runs at the Photographic Resource Center at Boston University through Jan. 25, is the reminder it brings that time is not just the ocean photography splashes in but also the spray that it raises.

All photographs are, so to speak, sun-singed. …Think of the process as a visual equivalent of distressing a surface. Where a photograph captures an instant in time, McCaw’s techniques indicate time’s ongoing effects on that instant.

As the sun casts shadows from wine bottles, drinking glasses, and the like, Cummins traces the outlines of those shadows in colored inks. Meal concluded, she photographs the chromatic accumulation. Visually, it’s like having Morris Louis as your waiter.
