Recent Work by Photographer Alex Prager at Michael Hoppen Contemporary

LONDON.- Michael Hoppen Contemporary presents the most recent work by rising American photographer Alex Prager. Following the success of her 2008 critically acclaimed exhibit, The Big Valley, the exhibition will stage the continuation of Prager’s Los Angeles narrative, as she contrives the next generation of retro-modern damsels. Women adorned with wigs and staged in neon Californian landscapes result in timeless, eerie and compelling images.
