Italian artist Olivio Barbieri’s photographs of European mountain ranges are often breath-taking, but he takes something else away in his latest series, namely large sections of the mountain that he substitutes for snow-like areas of white. Barbieri explains that he’s interested in the hiker’s point of view, including ‘mirages and hallucinations.’ (At Yancey Richardson Gallery’s new 22nd Street location through Nov 2nd).
