Unseen Color, Part II: East and West
By Stephen Perloff

MAY 4th – JUNE 16

Stephen Perloff: Green Building, 1978

Essentially, all the film-based work I ever exhibited before last year has been in black-and-white. Although I often shot color at the same time, somehow I never really learned to print color. Now digital technologies have allowed me to go back and scan my Kodachrome slides, which are still pristine, and make prints of this work.

Following up on last year’s show, this show, “Unseen Color, Part II: East and West,” features images made in the Far East in 1977 and on a cross-country trip to the American West in 1978. I hope you’ll join me at The Light Room and see what I’ve been up to.

Salt photographs of native plants found
across the United States.

On the heels of a two month motorcycle trip across the country to photograph native plants from 9 different eco-regions, Joshua Marowitz brings forth an exbition not to be missed.  Using the very first photographic process know as “salt” printing, the artist captures the exquisite, almost regal tone of these important botanical specimens by providing infinite detail and hand applied color to the image.

Join us for an exhibition of art inspired by historic photography and bio-diversity conservation!
