Multiple Exposures Gallery presents two new exhibits: American Made: Classic American Scenes by Colleen Henderson and Acadia: 4 Years of Photographs by Susan Meyers.
Colleen Henderson
Colleen presents photographs made during her ongoing exploration of rural back roads and nostalgic American scenes. Although the images have all been made within the last few years, they are distinctly reminiscent of an America you could have witnessed in the middle of the last century: successful, hardworking homesteads, an abundance of rich resources, and vast, dramatic vistas.
Susan Meyers
Susan presents photographs taken during her many visits to the Maine coast, predominantly the area in and near Acadia National Park. She first started visiting the area in the late 1970s and has continued to return every few years. The exhibit takes a broad view of what the repeat visitor finds when she continues to look. Over the years her photographs have turned from the crashing waves on the iconic Maine coast to some of the quieter more intimate places.
The exhibits will be on display through May 3, 2015. You are invited to attend a reception for the artists at the gallery on Sunday, March 29.
Eric Johnson is currently exhibiting a portfolio of new work at the Multiple Exposures Gallery. The exhibition “50 West” features Eric Johnson’s refined and elegant B&W images from his recent trip across the US.
Eric describes his project:
I have always been fascinated by the “long road”, those lines that run continuously across the map form coast to coast or north to south. The most interesting are those routes that have been supplanted by the interstate highways, winding their way through places that we often speed by in our haste to get to work or some other activity.
US-50 is one of those roads. We in the Washington area typically think of it as a congested commuter route from the Virginia suburbs to DC, or the equally busy route to a weekend getaway on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. But if one heads west, clear of the Washington, DC suburbs, the route is transformed into a scenic route across the middle of the country, passing through the hills of Appalachia, the expansive agricultural lands of the Midwest, over the continental divide in Colorado, across the deserts of central Utah and Nevada, and ending just outside Sacramento, California.
The photographs in this project are the product of a series of trips on US-50 - one cross-country run over the entire length of the route, and several shorter trips covering smaller segments of the route. I usually did not set out with a specific photographic itinerary but instead gave myself over to the serendipitous discovery of my subjects. The resulting images are a personal visual chronicle of long established places newly seen.
The show is on display from February 10 through March 22, 2015. The opening reception is Saturday, February 14, 2015 from 2-4 pm.
MEG member E. E. McCollum's photograph Cocoon Series #154 is featured on the cover of the current issue (52:2) of Southern Poetry Review. This is the second time one of McCollum's images has been on the cover of the journal. Despite its regional name, SPR is an international journal that publishes poets from all over the world and is read by an international audience. Images from McCollum's Cocoon Series were shown in a solo show at the Alexandria Art League earlier in the year. See more images on his website: www.eemccollum.com
Works by Multiple Exposure Gallery artists Karen Keating and Fred Zafran were selected by Jack Rasmussen, Director and Curator of the Art Gallery at the Katzen Center of American University, to be included in his exhibit Presence of Place at the Katzen Art Center at American University.
Presence of Place
Forty years ago, in a derelict building hidden among the abandoned amusement park rides of Glen Echo Park, four young photographers founded Photoworks with little more than a shared passion for the daily work of seeing, shooting, and printing images of lasting beauty and artistic integrity. Photoworks: Presence of Place will feature works by past and present members of the Photoworks community, faculty and students who have distinguished themselves by the quality and integrity of their work. This exhibition is in memory of Elsie Hull Sprague, an artist with a MA in Film from the School of Communication, American University.
