This past Saturday marked the opening day for our Honoring Martin Luther King Jr. exhibition, featuring archival photographs from Dan Budnik chronicling the Selma-Montgomery March, the March on Washington D.C., and the Voting Rights Act; and Susan Berger’s images of streets throughout the United States named in honor of Martin Luther King.
Copies of Susan’s book, “Life and Soul – American Streets Honoring Martin Luther King” are available, as well as a small number of signed copies of Dan’s book, “Marching to the Freedom Dream.” If you are interested in a copy of either, please send us an email at info@artintersection.com.
This past weekend, we had the pleasure of hosting our Advanced Digital Printing workshop, led by Richard Jackson. In this intensive class, students delved into the art of dissecting their images, honing their skills in Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom to produce striking prints that are exhibition-ready and perfect for showcasing and enjoying in the comfort of their own homes.
Take a behind-the-scenes look at the workshop, and get a glimpse of the class as they refined their images in Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom, working towards producing remarkable prints and bringing their visions to life.

We were happy to be hosting another PhotoTapas event in Ryan Gallery this weekend, featuring a series of guest speakers in Ryan Gallery.
After some coffee and donuts bright and early Saturday morning, the day began with a lecture from Scott Baxter about his The Gather exhibition at Scottsdale Museum of the West, and the relationships he has formed with the ranchers featured in the show.
Kerrick James spoke with us about monochrome infrared photography using digital camera bodies that have been modified
Alan Fitzgerald gave a crash-course on how to prepare your digital images to make contact prints in the darkroom, and students were able to see examples of prints made using digital negative transparencies!
Gina Santi spoke about the cultural contexts and traditions to consider when traveling the world and photographing the people you meet!
Brent Bond shared examples of photographic books and portfolios using letterpress-printed colophons and covers.
Geoff Reed shared his journey self-publishing his photography.
We ended the day in the lab with Spanish tapas-inspired food and a wine tasting with Garage East’s Brian Ruffentine, where he spoke about the varietals of Arizona wines produced in our own backyard!
