Metrowest Center, Whippany N.J. 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007. A series of 50 montages that attempt
briefly to tell the stories of 50 Holocaust survivors. Done for
the "Memory to History" project of the Metrowest Center. These montages are
periodically exhibited at the Center and loaned to other organizations.
The abstract form that can be read
into some photographs, even those with strong context, is what turns me on. I find this quite analogous, in my own mind, to
the beauty of the graphical or mathematical demonstration resulting from a good piece
of scientific research. Both have abstract beauty and real context. For this
scientist-photographer that's what gives the high.
My earlier images featured conventional
silver and color printing techniques plus a retro-photographic method (gum
printing). Because of the advent of very high quality printers, and archival
pigments and papers, I have transitioned to all Giclee (high quality digital)
printing. My exhibition photographs are taken either digitally or on photographic film
(in which case
images are subsequently digitized). This transition has permitted me to take advantage of the
the versatility, for creative work, of
digital manipulation of images. No effort is made to force the images to look
like conventional silver or color prints. Actually, for some images I find
it a distinct artistic advantage, to manipulate them
to look less like photographs.
