Robert Klein Gallery is pleased to present  This Is,  this is  (1989 - Now) , the gallery's sixth solo exhibition of photographs by New York artist  BILL JACOBSON . This survey charts Jacobson's course over the last 26 years, from his early defocussed images to the crisp, reductive work he continues to explore today. Taking place at the gallery's Back Bay and South End locations, the joint exhibition coincides with the recent release of Jacobson's fifth monograph,  Place (Series) , published by  RADIUS BOOKS .

Jacobson was awarded a John Simon Guggenheim Fellowship in 2012. That same year, Robert Klein Gallery exhibited some of the first images from Jacobson's then-in-progress  Place (Series). Produced both in the studio and out in the real world, this body of work distills and explores inherent landscape and still life traditions. The images simultaneously challenge assumptions about scale and dimension while bringing into question the very notion of what constitutes an image.

This Is, this is  (1989 - Now) highlights the completion of  Place (Series) and a concurrent project,  Lines in My Eyes. It also includes images from the earlier bodies of work  Song of Sentient Beings,  New Year's Day,  Interim Landscape,  Some Planes, and  A Series of Human Decisions.
