Rectangle Room Presents : Womanizer Brianna Capozzi Exhibition & Book Launch May 14 - 23 Opening reception & book signing Thursday May 14, 5 - 8pm Rectangle Room at Primary Photographic 113 Eldridge St. NY NY 10002 Brianna Capozzi @briannalcapozzi has spent the past decade redefining the narrative in fashion and contemporary portraiture of women. Her images unbind the female form and honor its wild and erotic power. Her lawless compositions effortlessly mix celebrity, the mundane, the absurd and the surreal, high and low, naturalism & idealism. There is an erotic interplay between photographer and subject, with both sides playfully exchanging power. Vibrant photographs of contemporary female icons, including Kim Kardashian, Miley Cyrus, Bella Hadid, Pam Anderson, Dua Lipa, Chloë Sevigny, and Selena Gomez, along with familiar faces from Capozzi’s New York circle of friends and muses, celebrate a feminine point of view and disrupt the legacy of the female form being depicted for the male gaze. Capozzi’s sophisticated camerawork weaves high fashion with saturated narratives, pop culture, her own handmade garments, and props. The images are enticing, glamorous, and unexpected. Womanizer is published by Rizzolli, 2026.

Wet Ground Aria Shahrokhshahi Exhibition & Book Launch curated by Tim Barber April 24 - May 9 Rectangle Room at Primary Photographic 113 Eldridge St. NY NY 10002 Wet Ground (Loose Joints, 2026) by British-Iranian artist Aria Shahrokhshahi, is a long-term body of work developed through repeated stays living and volunteering in Ukraine since 2019. Made from inside the war rather than in response to it, Shahrokhshahi’s activist approach rejects spectacle in favour of proximity, focusing on the rhythms, contradictions and fragile continuities of daily life shaped by prolonged violence and uncertainty. Shahrokhshahi moves beyond the visual shorthand of war imagery to present scenes that are often inscrutable, absurd, domestic, performative or oblique. A recurring focus on youth and subculture finding ways to survive and thrive reflects the radical and improvised paths life in Ukraine takes in the present moment. Wet Ground lingers in the spaces around conflict, where threat, loss and anticipation shape the daily existence of a generation of young Ukrainian men and women, even as they continue to carve out moments of resistance, rebellion and joy. The book’s title links Shahrokhshahi’s survival of a rocket strike while assisting in a medical evacuation of civilians from a frontline town, where wet ground prevented the detonation of a missile, to the unstable terrain of a country undergoing rapid and violent transformation, in which safety and danger exist in close proximity and the ground itself feels unreliable. Developed alongside Shahrokhshahi’s ongoing humanitarian work in Ukraine and extending the fundraising efforts of his previous publications and exhibitions, Wet Ground is accompanied by his immersive documentary While We Heal, as well as his ongoing sculptural and installation-based works from Ukraine, forming an embodied account of a country resisting erasure while life continues under pressure.

Aught Fraught @aughtfraught is an interview series podcast hosted by Matthew Porter about photography in the early 2000s (the aughts), an era that marked a high point in photography’s cultural visibility and market influence. For many practitioners and enthusiasts, the aughts remain a notably fraught, energetic, and formative decade for the medium. Every month it seemed there was another panel, another essay, another exhibition or catalogue that sought to find meaning and hope in what was largely considered to be photography’s moment of “crisis.”

Islands in the Net brings together a selection of Aught Fraught subjects, showcasing works that use myriad material strategies but focus on representation, particularly photography’s ability to frame ideas through various styles of depiction. The keystone work is Joshua Citarella’s large four panel banner, depicting a dystopian future, and showing the medium’s ability to merge image-generating software, digital appropriation, and lens-based pictures.
