Exiting the big, steel elevator to enter Doubleworld, the first major survey of Sarah Charlesworth‘s work currently at the New Museum, one steps into another, double, world and directly into the gallery of Stills: 14 photographs of people jumping or falling from tall buildings. The bodies appear as if caught or trapped inside the cropped photograph, each body held in space forever. We know, of course, the bodies will hit the earth, but this is not what is captured. Instead, the bodies are dropping and flying through space, cocooned in the ephemera of the black-and-white photograph. What does it mean to capture these moments of near death?
