Contemporary Photographs
Three East End Long Island Photographers
June 1- 25, 2007
Chris Foster – Anthony Lombardo – Alex Vignoli

Foster, Lombardo and Vignoli all live on the South Fork (the Hamptons) in Long Island, New York. They each view and capture images of the ocean, land and abundant wildlife in this very special place. Large format digital prints were especially for this exhibition. Additional smaller format images by the three photographers are available both framed and unframed. This exhibit is in keeping with our goal to showcase world class local artists.

Chris Foster The British-born, Amagansett photographer Chris Foster takes a traditional approach. His nature-scapes capture atmosphere and a specific sense of space. Among his iconic images in large format will be Fresh Pond Reflection, Bonaparte Wave, and Cormorants at Dawn and the award-winning Beach Chair. Beach Chair won first place in the black & white category of the Long Island Museum’s Long Island Through a Lens photographic show in May and is now displayed with the George Eastman House Collection exhibit, Best of Photo & Film. The ready to hang large format images are printed on paper, mounted on Sintra board and laminated for U.V. protection.

Anthony Lombardo Watermill photographer Anthony Lombardo has chosen a series of close-up digitally created sea life images evocative of 19th century large folio illustrations but with a 20th century twist. The photographs relay an intimate Zen-like sense of our world on macro and microscopic levels - nature seen through a looking glass. The ready to hang large format works are printed on paper, mounted on Sintra board and laminated for U.V. protection.

Alex Vignoli Brazilian-born, Watermill photographer / graphic designer Alex Vignoli is the surrealist of the group. He manipulates his carefully composed digital photos combining several shots into one image. Vignoli’s message can be viewed as mankind and our relationship to the earth. The ready to hang works are printed on stretched canvas in the manner of paintings; they are U.V. resistant.
