White Cube presents “Rear Window,’’ an online exhibition inspired by Alfred Hitchcock’s film exploring the seductions and dangers of the gaze. Hitchcock’s 1954 thriller features a photojournalist confined in his apartment who develops an obsession with watching his neighbours. The exhibition investigates how artists create scenes and suggest narratives, whilst exploring the idea of ‘the gaze’. “Rear Window’’ brings together paintings and photographs by Ellen Altfest, Jeff Burton, Gillian Carnegie, Judith Eisler, Celia Hampton, Danica Lundy, and more. Exhibition highlights include The whisperers (2020) by Julie Curtiss, who often uses cinematic devices in her paintings to suggest surreal narratives and Laurie Simmon’s Long House (2002-04) series of photographs, which depict domestic scenes using dolls.
