CLOSE TO HOME

Posted on 2019-03-25

Close to Home is a group exhibition of four photographers (Erica Deeman, Mark McKnight, Eva O’Leary, and Larry Sultan) that mine their personal experiences–past and present–to express moments of intimacy within larger social and political structures. Engaging with the deep and complicated history of photographic portraiture, each artist renders his or her subjects in part as extensions of themselves, coded with personal and cultural references.

Opposite – Larry Sultan, Close to Home, 2019

Exhibition runs through to April 6th, 2019

RON ROSENSTOCK – SCENES FROM ICELAND & GREENLAND

Posted on 2019-03-25

“The original subject matter for my photographs – land, sky, Ice, and glaciers – serves as my initial inspiration. I then work with the image on my computer as I once did in the darkroom to bring out what I felt at the time of exposure. My personal goal is to be in communion with the land. For me photographing the landscape of Iceland and Greenland is like experiencing the birth of our planet where natural forces are still at work creating and shaping the land. I feel that remarkable energy both in Iceland and Greenland and strive to express it through my photographs.”

About the Artist: Ron Rosenstock has been creating images of the world and its people since the 1950’s. His work has had many incarnations from vivid colors to black and white, from the darkroom to digital, from large format cameras to full-frame digital, from early dawn to infrared dusk. His images are real, though real is hardly subjective. Viewed in objective terms, color is far more real than black and white is – if only because color is such a defining element of reality as experienced by the human eye.
Exhibition runs through to March 31st, 2019
