thru January 17, 2012: Lucky Street Travels to Another World with Photography Exhibition - While the Key West Literary Seminar explores Another World: Literature of the Future through lectures, books and essays, Lucky Street Gallery uses photography as the medium in its show starting Friday, January 6. Curated by Lynne Bentley-Kemp, the show features five artists who explore the possibilities of another world in very different ways. As Dr. Kemp says, the theme “was like a huge door that had swung wide open and everything was possible….these artists are adept and finding the ineffable and giving form to fear and desire. … None of the images in this exhibition are manipulated digitally and that is intentional.”
Dan Larkin presents photographs of the Planet Walk series. Deceptively simple color photographs, he depicts the walking-scale model of the universe near Cornell University that was created in the memory of Carl Sagan. An almost literal look at other worlds, these photographs bring viewers a new perspective on their home planet and its place in the universe.
Silvia Lizama works with black and white photographs of everyday objects and spaces, seeing and composing in the lens the mysteries and magical realism of her own environment. She hand colors her photographs to give the images an aura of timelessness. Lizama teaches at Barry University in Miami.
Jon McIntosh, a Key West artist and sculptor, found ghostly images and other worlds when he separated photographs and studies for paintings that became fused during post-Hurricane Wilma flooding.
