Raphael Senzamici - A View From Grace

I have always been fascinated by how our world looks from above. Whenever taking a flight across the country, I would always sit in the window seat to witness what, until recently, has been out of my reach to capture as an artist.

Three years ago, I purchased my first drone and stood in awe of the visuals that were unfolding in front of me. A rush of emotions washed over me. Is this the view from heaven? With the recent loss of family members over the past few years, I wondered, do they peak through the clouds and check in on us? I'd like to think so.

This show, "A View From Grace," is for them.

Larry Davis - New Work

Ronaldo Aguiar - Nor’easter

In January 2016, New York was hit by a snowstorm. People were advised to stay inside. Public transportation was shut down. Cars couldn’t circulate. The city became an ethereal place. That morning, I grabbed my camera and wandered the streets, registering the strangeness that took over NYC and sending the pictures to friends, as if sending small letters. The show Nor’easter is the result of that unearthly morning.

Peter Agron - Two, and a Quarter

This is a set of 12 gelatin-silver black and white contact prints from the medium-size negatives.

Myra Hafetz - Stillness

There are moments when everything seems to stop. Sometimes this happens on a hot summer’s day when there’s no wind and everything is still. The photographs in Stillness were taken on Cape Cod on such an August day. It was completely silent. Nothing moved. It felt as if everything would be held forever in that moment. In times of uncertainly, it’s possible to briefly find peace in images that are lasting.
I was born and have lived all my life in or near New York City. As a teenager I took courses at the Art Students League. While I greatly enjoyed the Saturdays I spent there, I realized that whatever talents I might have, they didn’t include drawing
and painting. Yet, this experience has had a lasting effect on me.
I studied history in college and graduate school, worked as a copy editor while my children were young and volunteered extensively in the Larchmont community. When I began to study photography and to develop my own voice, I realized that my experience in art classes has greatly influenced my work. My images resemble drawings or watercolors. They are often only suggestions of things and places rather than literal images. Using my camera in place of a brush or pastels, I try to capture fleeting moments from time past and present.

Jay Matusow - Water’s Edge

The beauty of our coasts is often recorded as a landscape, but the detailed view we can see at the macro level is often overlooked. In Water's Edge, I've taken small objects: shells, barnacles, limpets, seaweed, and algae, and rendered them larger than life, magnifying the visually rich canvas as the tide washes in and out. The focus is on the way the sea distorts each subject’s form and intensifies its colors.
