ANNUAL UM FACULTY EXHIBITION- J. Tomás López: THE METRO SERIES

Beginning in 1983, López took his camera underground, into the subways, to document urban transportation as both phenomena and theatre. Using six cities worldwide as his laboratory, New York, Paris, Madrid, Rome, Barcelona, and London, López created a curious study of subway commuters. The images, which capture everyday travelers, Wall Street yuppies, street performers, the homeless, and unemployed, demonstrate changes in fashion, attitudes toward security, and cultural rebellion. The exhibition at the Lowe presents work from the past two years in New York, Paris, and Madrid. López is a Professor in the University of Miami Department of Art and Art History and the Head of Electronic Media/4D.
