Please join us Saturday, January 12 from 6 – 8 p.m. for the opening of Maggie Taylor: No Ordinary Days. The exhibition will run through February 9, 2012. Maggie will be in attendance for the opening reception, and her new book, No Ordinary Days, will be available for purchase and signing.
Clockwise L-R: The Experience, Most of the Time, Now What?
Following the success of her 2010 joint showing with husband/photographer Jerry Uelsmann, Maggie Taylor returns to Catherine Couturier Gallery (formerly John Cleary Gallery) for another solo exhibition, featuring both her newest and most popular images of the last fifteen years.
After more than ten years as a still-life photographer, Taylor began to use a scanner and computer to compose her images during the mid-1990’s and has since become one of the foremost creators of digitally manipulated fine art photography. Taylor builds her pieces layer by layer, incorporating nineteenth-century portraits, found objects, shared negatives, insects, animals, and any other myriad of things, often spending upwards of six weeks to reach a final product. The results often end up more painterly than photographic yet never fail to draw the viewer into Taylor’s singular world.
