Backstory: Latoya Ruby, Ron Jude 
and Guilaume Simoneau
Museum of Contemporary Photography


Caroline, Kennesaw, Georgia, 2008, Guilaume Simoneau


Grasshopper on Rose, Kennesaw, Georgia, 2008, Guilaume Simoneau




Recognizing both the allure and the inherent fiction of image-based narrative, the three artists in this exhibition, LaToya Ruby Frazier, Ron Jude, and Guillaume Simoneau, tell autobiographical stories by intertwining their personal narrative with the social, political, and cultural conditions of place. By mixing familial and communal histories, the artists blur the boundaries between the personal and the collective as they mirror the fluidity of our information-saturated world.

Backstory will remain up and open to the public until October 6th.
