Chesapeake Arts Center

Public Reception: May 11, 6pm to 8pm

This exhibition features the work of aerial photographer, Peter Stern. Inspired by both landscape and color, his photography is reminiscent of abstract paintings. The work presents the similarities between the landscape and textures of paint. The exhibit will run from May 11th to May 19th, with a reception on May 11th, from 6pm to 8pm at the Chesapeake Arts Center in the Hal Gomer Gallery located at 194 Hammonds Lane, Brooklyn Park, Maryland 21225. Gallery is open Monday-Friday 10am-6 pm and Saturday 10 am-12:30 pm.

The UMBC student curators include Valentina Anyanwu, Maggie Frost, Nicolle Konkel, Selene LaMarca, Sheila McFarland-Holt, Adam Stevens, and Kelly Thompson.

Peter Stern

In Peter Stern’s photography, viewers see the Mid-Atlantic from a unique and intimate perspective. Flying low, slow, and alone in his small airplane over the coal mines of Pennsylvania and the coastal landscapes of the lower Eastern Shore, Stern conveys an intimacy with his subject that echoes his deep personal connection to the region.

With the ability to fly between 500 and 800 feet above his subjects, and shooting primarily in “bird’s-eye” perspective, Stern discovered that he could create compositions with minimal reference to recognizable objects. These images occupy a place between the abstract and the representational, which Stern refers to as “Third Spaces”. As his preferred subject matter, these landscapes are not the sweeping vistas of natural splendor often seen in aerial photography. Rather he interprets the “in-between” spaces: the odd, unusual, and overlooked landscapes that provide deep visual intrigue.

The International Center for Photography in New York City worked with Harbers Studio and MediaStorm to produce mini-documentary films on each of the 2018 ICP Infinity awardees, including a 12-minute film on Maurice Berger, research professor and chief curator for the Center for Art, Design and Visual Culture (CADVC).

It is a beautifully made, informative film that does excellent work capturing Berger and his project Race Stories. Watch it online. 

Congratulations to Dr. Berger on the honor of the award and overview of his work in this amazing film!

Dear friends,

With frequent programming and tours now available at the Peale, we are trialling regular opening hours Thurs-Sat from 12-6pm, and 10-4pm on Sundays through May 6th. We’d like to continue to keep the Peale open these hours or as much as possible throughout the year until we close for renovations, but will need help to do so. If you, your students, or friends might be interested in working with us on a volunteer basis to help staff the Peale’s exhibitions and events and to give tours, please let me know and feel free to share my contact information. I will be offering volunteer training this weekend at the Peale between 12-6pm on Saturday and 10am-12pm on Sunday.

Now is the most interesting and impactful time to join the Peale team as we are reinventing the 21st century museum from the ground up. Even an occasional contribution can make a big difference to the Peale and the services we are able to provide to the City’s communities. Everyone’s input is welcome and valued; I hope to hear from you!

Many thanks for your support,
Nancy
