Artist Panel With Darren Clark, Jonathan Long & Michael Sherwin
Saturday, November 05 - 1:00PM to 2:00PM
In 2015 Darren Clark, Jonathan Long, and Michael Sherwin debuted their collaborative exhibition titled: The Upper Snake: Three Photographic Approaches. The exhibition consists of three separate bodies of work with three differing responses and presentation methods to three different river systems located within the Upper Snake River Basin. Clark works in a traditional manner (large format, black-and-white, matted and framed prints) to pay homage and reverence to a place. Long creates extremely large-scale panoramic photography installations to provide an immersive experience. Sherwin uses a combination of still life, mapping, book making, video and sound to help document and share his encounters of a place. Our hope is that the combination of regional subject matter coupled with three unique approaches to photography will engage patrons, provide them with an aesthetic experience, and help expand their understanding of what photography is and can be. We also believe this exhibition will help inspire, educate and encourage responsible stewardship of a significant river system in the American West - The Upper Snake.
Dialogue and critique are important to the SPE mission.
