Allan Barnes // People of the 21st Century
POVevolving Gallery is very happy to announce a one person exhibition by Allan Barnes.
For this exhibition, the artist will show recent portraits done in Wet Plate Collodion. Using chemicals such as silver nitrate and ether this process includes coating, sensitizing and developing a sheet of metal in a period of fifteen minutes. Each image is hauntingly beautiful and expresses a desire to transcend time and technology.
“I am inspired by the character of Billy Pilgrim in Kurt Vonnegut’s Novel Slaugtherhouse-Five who begins the story with the words: ‘I have become unstuck in time’.”
Please join us for the opening reception: October 22nd, 2011 from 7-11pm
A full exhibition preview is coming soon…
