• Lot n° 473 Catherine Yass, British b.1963 - Stall 70, 1996; photographic transparency and light box, H88.8 x W73 x D12.8 cm (ARR) Note: it is the buyer's responsibility to ensure that electrical items are professionally rewired for use. Provenance: Laure Genillard Gallery, London; private collection, UK Note: lots 473 and 474 are exemplary of Yass' practice of layering the positive and negative of photographs and producing them as lightboxes. Since 1995, Yass has been photographing empty public spaces as seen here imbuing the devoid space with energy. She first shoots a positive transparency and then waits a moment that she describes as ‘the gap between illusion and reality’ (Tate Britain 2002, p.12) before taking a negative transparency. A similar work, produced as a screenprint, was commissioned by the Barbican Art Centre, London in 1997 of their stage set behind the theatre. She was short-listed for the Turner Prize in 2002. Her work can be found in numerous international public collections including the Tate, London; Victoria and Albert Museum, London; Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, Edinburgh; Biblioteca Albertina, Leipzig; National Museum of Women in the Arts Collection, Washington D.C.; The Jewish Museum, New York; Museum of Modern Art, New York and Queensland Art Gallery, Australia.
