Photography
| Christopher Felver Even a partial list of photographer/filmmaker Christopher Felver’s subjects reads like a roster of America’s mid-century avant garde. The collection presented here is new work—photographs of structural elements transformed through his critical eye into lyrical mosaics. There is a mysterious nature to these images, and when juxtaposed into a grid system, the division of space and contrasting tonal values result in a new language, functioning almost as an ancient alphabet—agents of a short story. The fascination Christopher finds in the details of otherwise ordinary objects makes us question “What is beauty?” He has managed to marshal in, through time, place and condition, a unique and energetic series of poetic symmetry. His work is collected in libraries and museums worldwide. | Copper River Bottles Since Victorian times, collecting bottles has been a fascinating way to record history. During an excavation dig in Copper River, Alaska, a bottle specialist for Natural Curiosities unearthed over 60 bottles that were 200-300 years old. Christopher then reproduced the bottles into a series of images to immortalize the unique nature of all of all these artifacts. |
| George Chinery Horse In response to an ongoing interest in equestrian images, Christopher introduces a new look with this panel of a racehorse's head. The horse's name is Ravi, and he belongs to Colonel Russell as depicted in a personal photo album and diary of the colonel's life in India in the early 1900s. | Nasa Collection

| Purdue The friendship between Christopher and Peter Dunham over the last 5 years has provided a quirky and amusing sense of humor in their artistic collaborations. This image is believed to be of a coach from Purdue University in the 1950’s or 60's. His enthusiasm is endearing and creates an active and engaging print. | The Hyden Horses Eagerly awaited, this is our new horse collection that we have been looking for for over 3 years. Every photograph represents the power and magic of these amazing animals. Christopher has partnered with a photographic artist who has been shooting these horses for over 20 years and it's the first time these have been seen. |
