· You know those liposuction ads weighing down the back pages of this paper's Sunday magazine? Picture the "before" image as a fine color print stretching five feet wide and you've got a good idea of Jason Horowitz's work. The suite of photographs at Curator's Office posits human flesh as landscape; folds of skin stand in for rolling fields. Some exploit the unsettling, fleshy close-up: an outie bellybutton looks awfully embryonic when exploded to the size of my hand. Though I can't say you'll enjoy looking at them, the power of Horowitz's pictures is undeniable.
