Dark Prospects

Dark Prospects takes as its source materialissues of People, Time, Newsweek, U. S News and World Report. Charles Beronio retains the form of the magazine, but dismantles the medium's visual language by blacking out all references to textual and visual references to corporate branding, time andlocation, as well as thefacesofthe magazines' featured stars and advertising props. What's left is astuttering, unforgivingsequence of detonated images and textual fragments;a skewed visual narrative of modern life.
