Known for his cinematic world of miniature dioramas, Finkelstein explores a new direction in his work that focuses on the manipulation and transformation of books.

The books transformed into a sculptural medium. They had lost their specific identity as the words became distorted or even hidden therefore erasing the past message of the books. The stories and titles which caused the artist to select them were no longer identifiable.<\/em><\/h5>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/projects.lti-lightside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/RF_1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1548\" src=\"http:\/\/projects.lti-lightside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/RF_1.jpg\" alt=\"RF_1\" width=\"750\" height=\"563\" srcset=\"https:\/\/projects.lti-lightside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/RF_1.jpg 750w, https:\/\/projects.lti-lightside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/RF_1-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><br \/><\/a><strong>Richard Finkelstein:<\/strong> <em>Sir Robert Morton&#8217;s Wig<\/em>, 2018, Archival pigment print, sintra mount. <br \/>From <em>New, Used, Rare and Out of Print<\/em>, Robert Mann Gallery<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5><\/h5>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/projects.lti-lightside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/RF_3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1550\" src=\"http:\/\/projects.lti-lightside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/RF_3.jpg\" alt=\"RF_3\" width=\"750\" height=\"565\" srcset=\"https:\/\/projects.lti-lightside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/RF_3.jpg 750w, https:\/\/projects.lti-lightside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/RF_3-300x226.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/a><strong>Richard Finkelstein:<\/strong> <em>Interpretation of Dreams<\/em>, 2018, Archival pigment print, sintra mount. <br \/>From <em>New, Used, Rare and Out of Print<\/em>, Robert Mann Gallery<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/projects.lti-lightside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/RF_1.jpg\">\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<h5>This is our third exhibition with Rick for the Robert Mann Gallery &#8212; you can see our posts from those first two shows by clicking <a href=\"http:\/\/projects.lti-lightside.com\/?tag=richard-finkelstein\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/h5>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5><\/h5>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New, Used, Rare and Out of PrintRichard FinkelsteinRobert Mann GallerySeptember 13 &#8211; October 20 &nbsp; From the Robert Mann Gallery Press Release: &nbsp; Robert Mann Gallery presents a new body of work by Richard Finkelstein in his third solo show &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/projects.lti-lightside.com\/?p=1545\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[177,246,218,170,150],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/projects.lti-lightside.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1545"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/projects.lti-lightside.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/projects.lti-lightside.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/projects.lti-lightside.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/projects.lti-lightside.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1545"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/projects.lti-lightside.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1545\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/projects.lti-lightside.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1545"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/projects.lti-lightside.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1545"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/projects.lti-lightside.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1545"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
