SOLD OUT New Photographic Prints by Robert Renfrow.  

Well-known for his alternative photographs, award-winning filmmaker Renfrow is an accomplished educator, who teaches workshops internationally on the making, application and exposure of alternative photographic processes on paper and fabric.

"There is a world wide phenomenon of transnational corporate culture, urban sprawl and global homogenization inundating and annihilating ancient places, people, and traditions. The edges of this flood form an impact area with a fluid border and this border area is where I make photographs. The Screening Room exhibit  "Sold Out" is a small selection of my photographic imagery from this area."

Exhibition ends May 15
Gallery Hours: during screenings and Saturdays 1-5 pm
