Abstract
A review of a 1983 exhibition of photographs by Cindy Sherman held at the Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, in which the pictures are called Untitled Filmstills. The author of the review, Anna Tilroe, seeks to distinguish between the “reality” of Pop art and the abstractions of “reality” captured in Sherman’s staged images, in which the pose becomes a means of encoding emotions.
