ROMANCE IS DEAD! LONG LIVE ROMANCE!
Aug 27 – Oct 04, 2008
Trolley Gallery is pleased to announce the first solo show of Isabelle Graeff. A curiosity in the freely available virtual images of pornography found on the internet today lead Graeff to subvert their context and transpose them to the Romantic master Goya and French Rococo styles of Fragonard and Boucher.

Latest Releases
Double Dactyl – Nick Waplington
Accompanying his solo show at The Whitechapel Gallery, London, this new work from Waplington combines large format photographs of friends and family, scenes of British streets and seaside, with an added dimension of digital manipulation. Ranging from the almost undetectable, to the surreally fantastic.
£29.99 | Members Price: £24.99
M.A.S.H. I.R.A.Q. – Thomas Dworzak
Thomas Dworzak (Magnum) was embedded with a US medical corps in Iraq in 2005. His images of soldiers at work and play, from mess rooms to operating rooms and out in the field, are juxtaposed with stills from the 70s TV series M*A*S*H. Together they reveal the parallels of life at war, unchanged over the decades, the mad mixed with the small moments of sanity, that evolve from living in conflict, from Korea to Iraq.
£19.99 | Members Price: £14
