Kenneth Snelson: New York City Panoramas: Mar 30 2011 - Apr 23 2011; Press Release; This exhibition will consist of eight large black and white panoramic photographs by Kenneth Snelson depicting iconic views of New York City from 1979-1980. Snelson creates startling new impressions of familiar New York landmarks by capturing in one shot far more than the human eye can absorb naturally. The flattening of a 360° view brings to light a symmetry within the streets of the city that was previously imperceptible. The fact that notoriously crowded areas, such as Times Square and the Flatiron District, are completely barren in these photographs adds to the sense of unfamiliarity that these wide-angle views evoke. To capture these stunning images, Snelson used a vintage 1917, sixteen-inch “Cirkut” camera, one of only thirty ever made.

Chelsea
Robert Weingarten: Portraits Without People: Mar 03 2011 - Apr 02 2011; Press Release; Marlborough Graphics is pleased to announce an exhibition of the Portraits Without People series by photographer Robert Weingarten.
