Ben Depp Interview in “Photographer’s Forum”
Congratulations Ben Depp on a great article and interview!

JERRY UELSMANN: NOW (RECENT WORK)
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Artist Reception: Friday, September 7, 5PM – 7PM
on view September 7 – October 30, 2018
NOW (RECENT WORK), features a selection of new images from one of the most innovative photographers of the last half-century, Jerry Uelsmann. Renowned for his revolutionary multiple exposure printing technique, where multiple negatives and enlargers are employed in the darkroom and several images are fused to create a single photograph, Uelsmann’s images blend the familiar with the abstract to create surreal and dreamlike compositions. This selection of new photographs – all created in the last three years – shows the legendary artist continuing to push the boundaries of the photographic medium, as he has throughout the course of a long and illustrious career.

Barking at God: Retablos Mundanos Review
REVIEW: BARKING AT GOD – RETABLOS MUNDANOS
by D. Eric Bookhardt, Gambit Weekly
“[Sacabo] wondered if, and how, those contrasting modes of urban expression — one ephemeral, the other eternal — could be reconciled. This elaborate photogravure montage series, Barking at God, is the result of her investigation.”
Joel-Peter Witkin: The World is Not Enough Review
REVIEW: JOEL-PETER WITKIN AT A GALLERY FOR FINE PHOTOGRAPHY
by D. Eric Bookhardt, Gambit Weekly
“Joel-Peter Witkin’s now-famous proclivity for morbidity blossomed years later with his photos of Coney Island freak shows, and he’s been art photography’s incorrigible goth rocker ever since.”

TAKING A NEW LOOK AT SOUTHERN PHOTOGRAPHY
by John D’Addario, The New Orleans Advocate
“Like snapshots from half-remembered dreams, Sacabo’s images rely on mood and atmosphere for their effect, and resist attempts at literal interpretation.”
