‘UITSTALLEN’ window dressing
Installed in gallery spaces such as The Photographers Gallery, these large scale photoworks of window displays photographed in Amsterdam, reinterpret and frame the original window through additional elements such as a window box with plants, or a curtaining device.
“Verdi Yahooda’s photographs of display windows in Amsterdam are at once a departure from and an extension of her previous work. Her longstanding concern with the re-presentation of objects through Photography remains central, but in ‘Window Dressing’, the domain of interest has shifted to a more public context… (using) a manner of framing that moves towards sculpture.”
