Small Wonders
July 6, 2006- August 25, 2006
210 11th Ave
Opening on July 6, 2006,
Robert Mann Gallery is pleased to present Small Wonders, an exhibition of photographs that are diminutive in size, yet masterful in execution. As the title implies, none of the pieces in the exhibition is larger than 4x5 inches. Although we live in a time when it has become fashionable to make massive photographs, the small - in some cases tiny - pictures in this exhibition offer a different kind of viewing experience. We must slow our pace and look more closely. As we do so, we can see how these artists have used elegant pictorial structure and exquisite control of detail to create quiet images that offer a concentrated form of visual pleasure. Featured artists include
Brassaď,
Wynn Bullock,
Walker Evans,
Lewis Hine,
Andre Kertész,
Dorothea Lange,
Artur Nikodem, ringl+pit,
Aaron Siskind,
Alfred Stieglitz,
Paul Strand,
James Van Der Zee,
David Vestal,
Edward Weston,
Minor White, and many others. The images available to view on this website represent a selection from the exhibition - additional works are available.
