Surrealism, a movement that began in response to the atrocities of World War I, has continued to have a strong influence on artists today. Suspicious Minds examines this phenomenon by featuring new work by Jerry Uelsmann, a major practitioner of surreal photography dating back to the late 1960s, as well as images by contemporary photographers and film/installation artists, all with different and creative approaches to surrealist imagery: Robert and Shana ParkeHarrison (environmental and political), Tom Chambers (fragility of life), Joel Whitaker (reinventing the family snapshot), and Malena Bergmann (spiritual).
