“If you don’t have a sense of humor, the pictures won’t be funny,” claims Peter Fisher (quoting clown Wavy Gravy) about these twelve fun and thought-provoking pictures.
“How we look at the world is under whimsical examination in this light-hearted portfolio. Irony, wisdom, mischief, nonsense – what do you think is really going on here? These unstaged photographs were spontaneously formed by a serendipitous confluence of unexpected and entertaining events or insights, said Fisher.
In addition to mounting several shows a year of large prints, the gallery will feature rotating displays of medium- and small-size prints of Fisher’s landscapes and conceptual artwork.
The conservation-quality, limited-edition prints are made by Fisher, who shoots on film then scans into Photoshop. He says, “Modern inkjet printers use cotton-based papers and durable pigment inks — similar to painters’ materials — to offer today’s digital artists a consistent and flexible tool for creating artwork.”
The show continues through June. Call for more information 376-5955; To get on an email list of upcoming shows: pcf@petercfisher.com
