Following the Box

Working under a Fulbright grant awarded in 2013, artist Jerri Zbiral and I went to India to research an anonymous collection of photographs made in that country by a still-unknown American serviceman towards the end of WWII. We were based in Kolkata for 5 months, where we collaborated with Indian artists in several mediums to use the historic images as inspiration for the creation of new works. Learn more about this all-consuming project here: Following the Box

The website also provides links to the 30+ articles written about the project; views of the resulting exhibit; a trailer to the documentary film; all 127 photos; blogs chronicling our experience.

A review of my work in an exhibit at the Chicago Photography Collective's gallery, published in NewCity by Michael Weinstein:

Turn to Alan Teller’s dense and involving color abstractions of shards of ice amid bare twigs, dead leaves, and brown grass at the Ryerson Conservation Area near Deerfield, and you will find some redemption for all of the slips and stumbles of outrageous winter. Never does photography perform its office of alerting us to what we overlook around us as when we are too distressed and distracted to step back and see when we are there.

In conjunction with Evanston Library installation of Adlai's Woods exhibit:

July 7 – October 1, 2011
In conjunction with the Loop Alliance's initiative, inspired by Kay Rosen's text art, a group of CPC photographers focused on on-profit groups with which we are involved. I first exhibited 6 pieces based on my work with the Expanding Lives program that brings promising young women from Niger to Chicago. I then showed 3 pieces made in conjunction with the Kovler Center for Victims of Torture. The series explored issues of representation--the first set featured people who were able to present a public face. The second set highlighted that victims of abuse are all around us, yet we often cannot see their faces.
