City Art Gallery in Columbia, SC, Features Works by Fred McElveen
City Art Gallery in Columbia, SC, opens a photography exhibit by Fred McElveen entitled, Fred McElveen: Time - Captured, on Sept. 6. The exhibit will continued through Sept. 29, 2007.
Dr. McElveen is an established Columbia-based
physician with a specialty in dermatology, but he is also an award-winning
photographer. Though largely self-taught, the artist has studied
with Ansel Adams, Cole Weston, Phil Davis, and Alan Ross, among
others. Working in black and white, color, and computer-assisted
manipulation, McElveen builds upon established practices of American
documentary photography and European fine art photography while
inventing his own artistic voice.
The exhibit includes several of McElveen's images of Columbia
such as the Gervais Street Bridge, but his artistic vision transforms
these familiar sights into classic and romantic icons of place.
The exhibit will include streetscapes, landscapes, close-ups,
and images the photographer captured on his travels throughout
SC. The City Art Gallery exhibit will also feature several images
of arrangement of "stuff" that juxtaposes philosophy
with humor.
