Lecture Series: The Art of Photography Retold

Description

The Meredith Fine Craft Gallery is hosting a special 4-part lecture series: The Art of Photography Retold. This series is intended as an educational opportunity to enhance your knowledge of traditional photography, and to meet a diverse group of photographers who use the wet darkroom in their unique ways. Make plans to join us for a journey into the art behind photography - from the camera used to getting into “the zone”. The first lecture takes place on Monday, June 26, 2017 at 6:30 – 7:30 PM and will feature fine art photographer, Paul Wainwright, who specializes in traditional, wet-process photography. He produces museum quality prints for exhibition and collection, and his portfolio includes interpretive images of landscapes and historic architecture. Paul will discuss his artistic vision and creative processes. He will demonstrate his large-format camera which uses 4”x5” sheet film that is processed in a wet darkroom. You will learn about the steps involved in creating “traditional” photographs. Samples of his work will be on display. All lectures in the series are free and open to the public, and will be held at the Meredith Community Center, 1 Circle Drive in Meredith, NH 03253. The second lecture features John Layton on July 24, the third lecture features Nan Scull on August 21, and the final lecture features Bonnie Edwards on September 11. To inquire about the lectures, call us at (603) 279-7920 or stop into the gallery at 279 Daniel Webster Highway, Meredith, NH.
