OverviewExploring photography with a painter's eye, Posen has revolved his painting process around the ontology of photography for forty years. In Ellipsis: Dual Vision, his first monograph, the artist comes full circle with a series of 174 paired photographs. Blurring the lines between realism and abstraction, Posen uses the photograph as a poet uses the word, each image acting as both the symbol and subject of a larger idea.

Table of ContentsReviewsThe photographs collected here in various categories like humor, violence, absurdity, war, dream, structure, chaos, stasis, history, pop culture, nature, theater and the urban existence are endlessly compelling. They demonstrate the intuition of Posen s eye, both as a photographer and an editor, teasing elusive connections from the visual glut of the modern world.--Peter Nitsch ""Get Addicted To, June 29, 2015 "" The result is Ellipsis, which consists of 174 paired, unedited images, culled from an archive of several thousand. Individually, the photos might seem ordinary; juxtaposed, they play with perception and negative space, transcending the dailiness of their subjects and approaching the realm of metaphor and optical illusion.--Susan Kirschbaum T Magazine, March 30, 2015 Author InformationStephen Posen received his BFA from Washington University and his MFA from Yale.
