Gallery hours: |
This exhibition is the last in a trilogy of shows to mark thirteen years of wonderful traditional photography at point light gallery. In the months leading up to Christmas we are exhibiting sixty of the best photographs from most of the ninety exhibitions that have graced our walls. Fine black and white photographs of this calibre are rarely seen in Australia outside the major public galleries.
Choosing the “best” from a list which includes Paul Caponigro, George Tice, David Moore, Jill White, Elliott Erwitt and Fay Godwin, has been most enjoyable and made for some unusual juxtapositions.
Linda Connor’s work in spiritual and religious locations from Cambodia to Cappadocia takes us on a journey to other worlds both without and within.
By contrast Judy Dater’s photograph of Imogen Cunningham with her favourite model Twinka appeals to our sense of humour, while being a superb portrait of the two women.
Continuing as the only gallery in this country to show solely monochrome photography we open in February 2010 with a series of one-person exhibitions by Australian and international photographers making their point light debuts.
