FLESH: Portraits by Gary Schneider

FLESH includes his John in Sixteen Parts, a set of black-and-white fragments of his partner’s face seen through time; Genetic Self-Portrait, his installation, which employs medical-imaging techniques to depict his own body from the inside out; and Heads and Nudes, where Schneider uses exposures of up to three hours to explore and transform the flesh of friends and family.
