Roni Horn’s ‘aka’ presents thirty images of the American artist throughout her life, shown as nonlinear pairs that move back and forth in time. Introduced by Dave Hickey in an essay titled ‘In This Light She Resembles Herself,’ the art critic describes Horn’s ‘aka’ as a ‘volume of non-chronological photographs of the artist from infancy to adulthood, an exercise in Foucault’s lost art of resemblance. In ‘aka’ Horn manipulates “portraits of the artist” seen in rigorously cropped glimpses through the medium of time, as if through water, breathing herself in and out as we do oxygen.’ This volume was published in 2010 for an exhibition of Horn’s work at Hauser & Wirth New York.
