Sep 20, 2009 Through Dec 27, 2010 Dennis Marsico: Face Value (Flad Gallery, Youngstown) Steel engraved currency portraits have long been used as insignia to promote monetary stability, political ideology or patriotism. In Face Value, photographer and printmaker Dennis Marsico, assimilates these emblems in a series of print matrices. Like present day banknotes, the pigmented prints are encrypted with hidden messages visible only under a UV light source. The array titles are Commonwealth, 1992 Currency Crisis, Chairman Mao, Iraq Spoils, Middle East and India.
