Past the girls with their Longchamp bags and sunglasses in January, down the entire traverse of King Street in Old Town Alexandria, is the Torpedo Factory, where the Multiple Exposures Gallery, on the third floor, is showcasing their 20th anniversary photography exhibition.
While having 83 gallery spaces in one building, as the Torpedo Factory does, is incredible, one cannot help but wish there was more space to showcase good work. Less than twenty photographs are displayed in the Exposures show, each by a different artist, although you can sift through an extended portfolio of the artists’ work in boxes beneath the pieces. Despite these limitations, the hung pieces are compelling and skillfully done.
