Elliott Erwitt captures canine nuances in black and white photos By SCOTT IWASAKI The Park Record Some of these photographs don't necessarily have to do with the dog as much as it has to do with the human condition…" Claire Pfluger Kimball Art Center exhibitions coordinator Canines will have their day when "Dog Dogs," a black-and-white exhibit comprised of works by French photographer Elliott Erwitt, opens at the Kimball Art Center during the Park City Gallery Associations monthly Gallery Stroll on May 30. The 65 photographs will adorn the KAC's Main Gallery and will be on display through July 20. Erwitt is one of the leaders in the field of magazine photography, and is known for his journalistic essays, illustrations and advertisements, said Claire Pfluger, Kimball Art Center exhibitions coordinator. "He is very well known for the work he did commercially and for some of his documentary works," Pfluger told The Park Record. "He is such a wonderful photographer. He is very ironic and funny in his works, and we thought ‘Dog Dogs' would be a fun show for us this summer." The photographs are culled from Erwitt's career that started in the late 1940s to the most recent, shot in 2004. "Mr. Erwitt is known for the works Please see ‘Dog,' C-2 |
