Description
HOUSTON, TX – Exciting new work entitled “Becoming a Myth” from Houston photographer, Cara Barer to be shown at DeSantos Gallery. The opening for the exhibition will be held on Saturday, November 7, 6-9 PM. The fascination with Barer’s new form of art photography continues to grow each year as she presents a new body of work about books.

Along with the book photographs in this exhibition, Barer will also present new mixed media sculptures created from the previously photographed books. Barer has also cast one of these sculptures in bronze – a step in a different direction for her, but one that has opened a new door for the artist in her repertoire of mediums. Says Barer, ”I continue to experiment and find new ways to re-purpose books that no longer have a reason to exist. In this digital age of the 21st century, I hope that people will consider the ephemeral way in which we choose to obtain knowledge, and the future of books.”
