The Good People of SUNDAY are pleased to present the New York debut of Zurich-based artist and musician Tom Huber. Tom Huber’s intimate and delicate photos often express a great sense of humor and bear the lightness of snap shot photography. The exhibition will include new photographs focused upon Western subjects such as cowboys, horses, and dusty landscapes as well as the video I Ride My Horse To Death, which recently won an award at Solothurner Filmtage.

“For me, this is a new way of seeing things. It’s strong, it’s sinister, it’s gothic, it’s nothing I have seen being produced in the U.K., it is in its best ways: new European photography” (James Reid, Photo Editor, Wallpaper, London, about Tom Huber’s work).

Tom Huber (b. 1976, Zurich, Switzerland) attended the Gerrit Rietveld Academy, Fotografie, Amsterdam and Hochschule für Gestaltung, Vorkurs, Zürich; he currently lives and works in Zurich. In addition to this exhibition, his work has been included in exhibitions and screenings at Gallery StaubKohler, Zurich; Kunstmuseum Thun, Projektraum ENTER, Thun; Stiftung BINZ39, Zürich; and Galerie b2, Leipzig, among others. He has beten the recipient of numerous awards including the First Prize category at the Solothurner Filmtage. He has collaborated with Tobias Nölle to record several soundtracks and his debut album Playing For the Goats was released in 2006.
