Georgiana Warner @ Zone2.8: Warner’s collection of photographs, Boyhood, captures the zeitgeist of male adolescence better than any male-authored coming of age narrative. Absent is the awkward narrating voice, attempting to recreate a distant personal epoch from which the man-child writer is decades removed. Instead, Boyhood shows just the opposite: the child-man, seen through the camera lens of a woman. Warner’s approach is tender yet dark–we see sleepy boys, violent boys, and sexually curious boys–but never critical. Catching her subjects unaware foreshadows the clueless and unintentionally destructive adults into which many of her charmers will no doubt grow, while simultaneously absolving them of the heavy expectations that have settled so early on their slight shoulders. Zone2.8 is located @ 1000 Wisconsin Ave., on the corner of K St. (202) 333-4450. Mon.-Fri., 10 a.m.-5 p.m.; Sat., noon-5 p.m. Boyhood closes Oct. 11.
