Michael Kahn‘s work,is powerful and alluring in his black and white photographs. His images transport the viewer to vivid landscapes for self-reflection. Kahn is legendary for his frozen moment-in-time photographs.

Sam Krisch‘s images are powerful in their simplicity, as they awaken feelings of solitude, quiet, and expansiveness. The photographs use either a palette of soft colors or a strong range of deep blacks and whites to enhance the story embedded in each image.

Alessandra Manzotti‘s photographs show a strong affinity for moody and dramatic scenes that is counterbalanced by a search for simplicity and introspection.

Dave Nibouar‘s photos are described as haiku poems. The initial photo is raw material; minimal enhancements on the computer, like copping and contrast adjustments, help to tease out the essence of the image. When it’s right, there is a connection between the artist’s eye and the heart of the viewer.

Each of the photographers brings different points of view to the exhibition, causing the viewer to have a range of emotions. Come see an exhibit that will cause the attendee to feel and think of more than just a thousand words.
