Richard Barlow from Upstate New York will be presenting his first solo exhibition in the Pacific Northwest at the Bellevue Arts Museum.
Titled ‘Manifest’, the exhibit, which explores the origins of photography and its relationship to the natural world, is comprised of two phases. The first one will have 30 pieces of his work done in silver leaf on vellum. It will feature images of the natural world, such a waters, mountains, and trees, in a very evocative nature.
There will also be three pieces that examine the beginning of photography where positive and negative spaces will be used to recreate early photographs. There will also be a large 800sq. ft. chalk surface along the south wall of the Boeing Apertures Gallery of the Museum.
During the second phase, the large blank chalk surface will be filled in by Barlow with a chalk drawing that will be the largest of his career. Audiences of the Bellevue Arts Museum will be able to watch the artist as he works from late June through early July to create a drawing of the ancient woodlands of the Pacific Northwest. The work will be temporary and will be erased at the end of the exhibit.
The exhibit opens on April 27. Poster printing can be used to promote exhibits such as this, and their unique attractions for the public.
