Alec Soth: Advice for Young Artists

Apr 17 — May 23, 2025

Fraenkel Gallery is pleased to present Alec Soth: Advice for Young Artists, an exhibition exploring the cultivation of creativity through playful and surprising photographs made at undergraduate art programs. Rather than offering the guidance promised by the show’s title, the series presents reflections on artmaking at different stages of life, exploring the connections between photography, time, and aging. Inspired in part by Walker Evans’s Polaroids of young people, the photographs range from bright still lifes made from art department props to enigmatic images of students and oblique self-portraits.
