Fred Herzogí¢â‚¬â„¢s photography exhibition is extensive, almost excessive. But this arrangement of overabundance traverses the visual spectrum.It often depicts images of overcrowded streets, jammed full of bright neon and gaudy advertisements, or shop windows teeming with row upon row of similar products, priced and hung like carcasses, waiting to be plucked. The unifying theme that gathers these pictures together is the sense of a city shaped by its economy, dominated by its impact and divided by its effects.
