Ira Meinhofer: Pinhole Photography
May 29 – July 10, 2013
Reception: Friday, June 7, 5-7pm
Freelance photographer Ira Meinhofer has always had a love of photo-taking. This exhibit features his black-and-white, film positives/negatives and digital prints/enlargements, all of which originated from a pinhole camera, made from one-gallon paint cans, tea tins or oatmeal containers that are poked with a hole to allow light in. The distinct feature of pinhole pictures is that they have an unlimited depth of field. Some are enhanced or enlarged digitally for creative effect. |

Catherine Atkinson
July 16 – September 18, 2013
Reception: Friday, July 19, 5-7pm
This exhibit features a variety of printmaking methods including acid etching, aquatint, drypoint, and mezzotint. The artist’s 85 years of gardening fostered an interest in plant textures and root construction, abstractions of which became etchings of twisting tree trunks, jagged branches, and convoluted roots. Recently she returned to a fiber sculpture class which led to an exciting combination of her art interests, stitching by hand on fabric her own etchings. |
