When in the air, I can really see the changes in hardness and color temperature of light in a way that is so much more dramatic than what I am able to see from the ground. – Ben Depp

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.

REVIEW: BARKING AT GOD – RETABLOS MUNDANOS
