Written By: Talk of the Sound News

PELHAM, NY — The Pelham Art Center is proud to present Constructing New Photographies, a new exhibition of three contemporary photographers on view September 9 through October 22, 2016. An opening reception will be held on Friday, September 9 from 6:30-8PM including a free hands-on art workshop.

Constructing New Photographies examines new uses of photography through the artwork of photographers Magali Duzant, Jim Ramer, and Carol Warner. With the omnipresence of images in our lives and the ubiquitous use of iPhones as cameras, emerging and seasoned photographers are finding exciting new ways to distinguish their work in the field. Moving beyond a simple visual record, photography now has the ability to be infinitely flexible easily incorporating and collaborating with other medias such as video, installation, text, sculpture and the environment. As photography now moves forward operating on multiple levels and dimensions, this relatively new art medium is transforming and blurring its boundaries thus redefining art, technology and culture. This exhibition explores these new photographic worlds. Constructing New Photographies is curated by professor, author, and artist, Stacy M. Miller.
