Tina Barney, David Levinthal, Laurie Simmons and the other artists in this collection approach the question of photographic truth through a simulated reality that deliberately exposes props and artifice. The results are simultaneously deceptive and precise descriptions of reality, blurring the distinction between fact and fiction.
