FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASEHeidelberg, Germany -- Arts & Friends Galerie, a leading photography gallery in Heidelberg, Germany, is pleased to announce the premier German show of black and white imagery by Zeiss Lens Ambassador Harold Davis.
Exhibition dates: 18 October --17 November, 2014
Opening date: 18 October, 2014 at 6:00 PM
Davis’s black and white works cover a range of contrasting territory with subjects from around the world. The print sizes range from intimate to grand. Harold Davis’s extraordinary imagery builds on the masterworks of the past while embracing revolutionary innovations in photography. From beginning to end, the techniques that Davis uses are unique. Trained as a classical photographer and painter, his photographic images are made using special capture techniques that extend the range of visual information beyond what the eye can normally see.
Gallery director Francis Kelly states, “I am pleased to have a photographic artist of the caliber of Harold Davis exhibiting with us. This is the first time that the full range of Davis’s monochromatic vision will be presented at an art gallery venue in Germany.”
According to Harold Davis, “I was honored when Arts & Friends asked me to present a solo exhibition at the gallery. My handmade black and white pigment prints are an important facet of my work. I like to blend the traditional craft of photography with wide-gamut and alternative digital methods that I have invented, using a wide range of modern-day equipment and high-end pigment printing on both traditional papers and hyper-modern metallic surfaces.”
