Through the Lens: New Directions in Print Photography May 5 through June 23, 2012Through the Lens is the third in a series of juried exhibitions showcasing the best work in the printed photographic arts. With the digital age, photography has been evolving from an inventive "witness" technology to a more creative technology. This show is meant to embrace the best of traditional techniques as well as new potentials that stretch the limits of what photography is. Alternative photographic techniques are welcome. This year we are offering the first subject category for you to interpret, plus 2 broad categories. The broad categories remain the same - black and white and color - and the subject is: HOME. The way you interpret home is strictly up to you. PROSPECTUS | |
Great Artists in the Permanent Collection The Art Center has been blessed with patrons who loved and collected art. Many wanted to share their pieces with other art lovers and our community through the Art Center and bequeathed or gave many of their most loved works to our Permanent Collection.Our collection features work by many world renowned master artists including Henry Matisse, Edouard Manet, Salvador Dali, Maurice Vlaminck, and Marc Chagall; as well as regional favorites that include Charles Counts, Jane Larson, Bryon McKeeby, and Richard Jolley.
