The theme of the exhibition is inspired by artist Len Lyes cameraless photographs from
1930 and 1947, and its the first time all 52 of Lyes photograms have been seen together. Emanations is an opportunity to put Lyes photographic work in a suitably global context, surrounded by his predecessors, contemporaries and successors. Emanations includes many masterpieces of photographic art and showcases the talents of some of the world's leading contemporary photographic artists. The exhibition has work by photographic pioneers William Henry Fox Talbot and Anna Atkins, important modernist photographers Man Ray and Lszl Moholy-Nagy, and many of todays most significant photographic artists including Walead Beshty, Marco Breuer, Liz Deschenes, Joan Fontcuberta, Christian Marclay, Thomas Ruff, and Hiroshi Sugimoto. Emanations also includes work by both senior and emerging Australian and New Zealand artists, from Anne Noble and Anne Ferran to Andrew Beck and Justine Varga. The book contains 184 full-page colour plates and a 25,000 word essay by Geoffrey Batchen. Featured in the 9 May 2016 New Zealand Newsletter.
