IN EXILE: Paris and New York
The Photographs of Fred Stein
Opening Reception and Lecture with Fred Stein's son, Peter Stein:
Wednesday, February 24, 6:00-8:00 p.m.
Fred Stein was an early champion of street and documentary photography recognized for his iconic images of life in Paris and New York from the 1930's through the early 1960's as well as portraits of important writers, artists, scientists and celebrities of the time, such as Albert Einstein, Salvador Dalí, and Marlene Dietrich. It has only been in more recent years that his work is finally getting the recognition it deserves as an important and insightful record of city-life during a pivotal moment in history.

QUAKING ASPENPhotographs of Gary Metz
Exhibition Opening Reception: Wednesday, February 24, 6:00-8:00 p.m.
In the 1970's, the late photographer and educator Gary Metz generated a significant body of work that was very much in the spirit of the times. Metz's Quaking Aspen: a Lyric Complaint challenged the first 100 years of landscape photography, which had placed a major emphasis on depicting nature as sublime, heroic, and unspoiled. Unlike previous photographers who glorified nature, Metz and his contemporaries wrenched photography out of the national parks and replaced the scenic with the vernacular of the everyday American landscape.
This event is free and open to the public.
