Other Pictures is Miles Aldridge's surreal take on the traditional family album, and an autobiographical sequel to Pictures
for Photographs (Edition 7L, 2009), in which Aldridge presented his fashion drawings and photographs. Other Pictures
opens with seductive black and white images of Aldridge s then lover, now wife, model Kristen McMenamy. Taken in hotel
rooms after fashion shows from London to New York between 1994 and 1997, the photos are spontaneous and
narcissistic, and show the young Aldridge investigating the medium of 35 mm photography as much as his unfolding
romance with McMenamy. The second part of Other Pictures is an introspective portrait in deep colour of Aldridge's
married life with children. Cinematic and beautiful but filled with anxiety, these images show Aldridge s children as
vacant and sometimes corpse-like actors in the photographer s imagined drama of family life.
Miles Aldridge, born in London in 1964, has published his photographs in such influential magazines as American and
Italian Vogue, Numéro, The New York Times, and The New Yorker. His work has been exhibited in numerous group
shows, and his solo shows include those at Brancolini Grimaldi in Florence, Hamiltons Gallery in London, and Steven
Kasher Gallery in New York. Aldridge's work is held in the National Portrait Gallery and the Victoria and Albert Museum
in London, and in the International Center for Photography in New York.
