Vintage print // Stocking (from In Situ) by Ralph Gibson, created in 1970, is a striking gelatin silver print that captures the sensual and textural qualities of a single leg clad in a dark stocking. Positioned against a patterned background, the leg extends gracefully, with the foot slightly raised, drawing attention to the smooth silhouette and the delicate play of light across the fabric. Gibson’s use of high contrast accentuates the tonal depth of the stocking, creating a tactile quality that emphasizes texture and form. The juxtaposition of the patterned backdrop with the leg’s clean line adds a subtle layer of abstraction, inviting viewers to focus on the composition's elegance and simplicity.

What is conceptual art?
Sometimes referred to as Conceptualism, this is an art form where the idea(s) or concept(s) behind the work take precedence over material concerns and traditional aesthetics.
