The Center for Photographic Art is pleased to present Embracing Light, a unique two-person exhibition featuring the work of renowned fine art photographers Anne Larsen and John Sexton. They have been sharing a life together along with their passion for photography and exploring the land with large and medium format film cameras, for over thirty years. Their mutual devotion to the beauty of the handcrafted silver gelatin print, created in the traditional darkroom, lies at the heart of their artistic expression.
Included in this exhibition, for the first time, will be a body of work they undertook over multiple photographic journeys exploring Venice, Italy. The exhibit will also include stunning images of the natural environment, as well as human-made subjects. For both photographers the use of light as it graces the subject, and its use throughout the photographic process, is essential. Though their palettes are different, both Anne's and John's prints share a common beauty and luminosity.
