About The Artwork

Neon signs belong to everyone collectively. However, when you stand in its glow, it can be for you exclusively. This ambivalence is what gives neon its staying power. This allows for a genuine sentiment to be shared on a personal level with anyone who sees the sign. There’s something amazing about neon light. It’s the radiance, the color, the way the electricity and neon dance. this one’s for you David. Late night phone calls about art, about clouds, about nothing. I was familiar with the fluorescent light work of Dan Flavin, but with the way you talk about him I want to know everything. You tell me about an installation in the Guggenheim from 1992, Untitled (to Tracy, to celebrate the love of a lifetime). Handwritten because my typed words more and more meant nothing. I may not have the Guggenheim, but I do have a little window space in midtown Manhattan. I hope one day you’ll want to see it. I’ll leave the light on for you.

Beau Torres (b. 1989, Powder Springs, GA) is a photo-based artist living and working in New York. He holds a BFA in Studio Art with Concentration in Photography from Georgia State University, and earned his MFA in Advanced Photographic Studies from the International Center of Photography-Bard. His main interests lie in everyday life as well as apophenia, the tendency to find meaning or relationships in seemingly random data/phenomena. The work he makes is concerned with New New Photography, a dialect of photography situated at the intersection of still-life tradition, assemblage, and online culture. Within his studio practice he creates a visual language juxtaposing genuine sentiments with throwaway objects/phrases to both critique and embrace a societal mindset of cynicism and irony. Current interests include: art therapy, museum studies, and community-oriented practice
