David Stephenson
For centuries the dome has symbolised the
hemisphere of the cosmos - eternity. At its apex is
the all-seeing 'eye of god': suggesting the
panopticon, in which actions are controlled by the
gaze. David Stephenson has photographed the lavish
ornament of many scores of such domes creating a
sweeping taxonomy of virtual heavens - a typology
of cupolas.

Rebecca Cummins
Contrasting with the god's-eye-view of David
Stephenson's Cupolas, Rebecca Cummins' Liquid
Scrutiny is a tool for spying. Based on a design
from 17th century Prague, the artist's wittily
constructed 'paranoic dinner party' implicates the
viewer in the seduction of secretive
surveillance.

Two
Stephen Roach
Stephen Roach is an Australian who lives in
Italy. This exhibit unfolds around three distinct
sites: a garden, an open-air theatre and the family
house of the last baroque painter to the Bourbon
court in Naples. Rather than document each
location, the photographer has created hybrid
panoramas, which play on the excessive, sensual and
unclassical nature of the baroque.
