    JEAN CURRAN AT DANZIGER GALLERY, NY CITY

    Saturday, December 29th, 2018

    The Vertigo Project by Irish photo artist Jean Curran is now on show at the Danziger Gallery in New York – one of the leading photography venues in the world.  The artist takes key scenes from Alfred Hitchcock’s Vertigo to reveal the cinematographic artistry of the film, considered his greatest achievement.

    In full co-operation with the Hitchcock estate Curran edited select frames from a rare original technicolour print.  She then printed them using the same dye transfer process with which the film was made.  The switch from moving picture to still prints created a medium jumping work in its own right.  The 20 still images feature the stars of the 1958 film, James Stewart and Kim Novak.  The New York exhibition runs to January 26.
