Event Description:

AC Gallery presents Switch, an inaugural solo exhibition by american photographer Mark Dektor. Intimate portraits grant the viewer a shift in perception, offering an uninhibited look into the private BDSM life.

“Dektor’s photographs capture the vision of Robert Mapplethorpe’s ground work” Carlos Benitez, Gallerist

 Director and cinematographer Mark Dektor began his career in the advertising industry, but changed directions to fine art photography when fueled with a desire to fulfill an unrequited dimension in his creativity. A subculture of mystique opens up to Dektor’s lens, breaking down misconceptions and allowing others to witness the intrigue of BDSM purely. Power dynamics become visible with a vulnerability not often experienced. True personalities are exposed yet maintain the same level of credence. In essence, Dektor’s work becomes a showcase of pent up emotions to finally emancipate freely, becoming a visual delight for all to behold.

Mark Dektor will debut thirty-six black-and-white photographs exploring multiple subject matter from his bulging archive, which features no fewer than 5,000 digital originals, at AC Gallery and within the recently completed White Cube exhibition space inside the gallery, a space dedicated to solo and collaborative long-term projects. A panel discussion on BDSM background and culture between participants in the scene is to follow on January 11th, 2019.

There will be a reception from 7–10pm on Saturday December 15th at AC Gallery located at 1546 Highland Ave., LA 90028 Admission is complementary with RSVP to: art@acgallery.us This exhibition contains sexually explicit imagery and may not be suitable for minors.
