Page Bond Gallery

At the Page Bond Gallery on Main St. the current exhibition is a collection of photographs by Emmit and Elijah Gowin. The work has a very contemporary and simplistic quality to it that is, although very familiar feeling, quite refreshing to see in a town that often has so much post modern art. The subject matter is not at all what I would choose to focus on in my own work but I must appreciate a well made image that still makes a rather bland subject matter intriguing. There is a great deal of intimacy between the photographers and the people photographed that makes the photos tell their story with very little imformation actually revealed. Overall, it was a solid display of Americana captured on silver gelatin.
