SECOND NATURE: Brad Temkin
Brad Temkin is an award-winning Chicago-based photographer who has been documenting human and environmental relationships throughout his career in photography. This exhibition delves into four bodies of work that look at this relationship: revealing man’s imprint on the natural landscape alongside human efforts to incorporate natural elements back in to urban environments, in their gardens and on the rooftops of skyscrapers, revealing contrasting states of beauty while simultaneously presenting a framework for positive change.
Through Feb. 7, 2016
ON ASSIGNMENT: At Sea with OCEARCH — Robert Snow
Robert Snow is a Central Florida based editorial and advertising photographer whose work spans multiple genres and styles: from editorial portraits and lifestyle spreads to action sports. In 2013, he took an assignment with OCEARCH, a non-profit organization dedicated to apex predator education and research, emphasizing shark migration patterns. Robert has since participated in 6 expeditions across the globe, from the United States to the Galapagos and Australia, documenting marine scientists at work, often in treacherous waters while in close proximity to some of the largest predators of the sea—risking their lives to better understand these mysterious beings in order to dispel myths and spread awareness as to the important role that sharks play in our global ecosystem.
ANAMALIA: Henry Horenstein
A body of work by noted photographer Henry Horenstein in which he presents elegant and engaging representations of an eclectic mix of land animals and sea creatures, emphasizing their unique qualities and characteristics through his evocative and mysterious images. This body of work was created between 1995 and 2001, culled from images taken at various zoos and aquariums. Horenstein is currently based in Boston and teaches at the Rhode Island School of Design.
