Street Photography 2024 Workshop Gallery

Posted

Neil A. Miller

An American photographer, Neil A. Miller, captures the many fleeting aspects of the world around us. Neil’s first photographic work on the street was in Cleveland, Ohio during the early 1960’s. It was a challenge to go from pictorial/portrait type photography to candid street photography. Working with a Rolleiflex 3.5f and a Leica M2 the results created a passion in him that has continued to this day. 

In the 1970’s he spent time with Garry Winogrand and W. Eugene Smith while assisting at the Ansel Adams and Friends of Photography Workshops. His background includes time as a US Navy Photographer, a 15 year teaching career along with a 39 year career as a news photographer for Channel 10 in Phoenix. Since retiring, Neil continues his devotion to the photographic arts and most specifically to photographing on the street.

Light Sensitive

Posted

Art Intersection presents Light Sensitive, our thirteenth, international juried exhibition of images created using traditional darkroom, historical, and alternative photographic processes and methods. This year we are honored to have photographer and alternative photography process artisan Kerik Kouklis jury the submitted work.

As we have seen technology trends continue to popularize digital photography on our computer displays, Light Sensitive highlights art from artists working in traditional and historical printing processes.

Light Sensitive seeks to celebrate, promote, and reaffirm the art of handcrafted prints that uniquely belong to the tradition of light sensitive creative processes. Each year we are in search for work that represents creativity, passion, and displays the beauty of these light sensitive processes.

About the Juror

Kerik Kouklis is a fine art photographer, filmmaker, and educator who specializes in creating handmade photographs and documentary films. Born and raised in California with a background in music and a 30-year career as an environmental geologist under his belt, Kerik combines a contemporary eye with 19th-century processes to produce work that is uniquely his own. Influenced by the pictorialists of the early 20th century, he makes images that can be at once calm and unsettling. Working in a variety of formats from small digital cameras up to large view cameras, Kerik uses both film and digital negatives to create his prints. Kerik’s website.

Advanced Digital Printing Workshop with Richard Jackson

Posted

Last weekend, we had the pleasure of hosting our Advanced Digital Printing workshop with Richard Jackson!

During this intensive class, students identified their vision and intention of their images, then through deconstruction of the images,  translated from the computer screen to dimensional prints on paper.  Three days of editing and test prints to create a collection of final prints. 

Topics covered also included lighting, color space and gamut, rendering intention, paper selections, and working with commercial print labs. 

Take a peek behind the scenes of the workshop and watch as the class perfected their images in Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom, working to produce extraordinary prints and bring their creative visions to life on paper.
