CONSTRUCTING NEW PHOTOGRAPHIES SEPTEMBER 9 - OCTOBER 22, 2016

Opening reception and Free All Ages Workshop: Friday, September 9, 2016, 6:30-8PM with music in the courtyard by the Jazzy 3.

“Constructing New Photographies” is an exhibition of three contemporary photographers that examines the new uses of photography. With the omnipresence of images in our lives and the ubiquitous use of iPhones as cameras, emerging and seasoned photographers are finding new ways to distinguish their work in the field. Moving beyond a simple visual record, photography now has the ability to be “infinitely flexible,” holding vast amounts of informa-tion, working with apps and technologies which are just starting to be understood; operating on multiple levels and dimensions. This exhibition explores these new photographic frontiers. Artists: Magali Duzant, James Ramer, and Carol Warner; curated by Stacy Miller.

Starting with the dual-pencil technique, the class will progress to the broad-edged nib while learning the Foundational Hand developed by Edward Johnston in the early 20th century (based on the 15th century Humanist script), which is the essential starting point for learning other hands such as Italic, Uncial, Rustic and Blackletter. No prior experience or skills are necessary. The only prerequisites are enthusiasm and the willingness to learn the skills needed to create beautiful letters. All supplies are provided.
