My NYC, a new gallery show sponsored by the New York Professional Women Photographers group, will include my original photo "Lindy's In The Rain," opens August 4 at Matted LIC, in Long Island City. The exhibit features bold, graphic images of New York City in a celebration of the big apple. The show is unique in that all of the images will be printed on luminous metal plates of 8"X8" square, or 8"X10" portrait or landscape configurations.
"The organizers of this exhibition recognize that every artist sees their subject in different way, which truly speaks to my aesthetic," said Ms. Friedland. "In my work I am to find something unusual in ordinary things." "Lindy's In The Rain" is a photo of a typical New Yorker going about his business on a rainy day, but the rain streaked window obscures the man's face and gives a blurred look to the other elements in the picture. The Lindy's sign in the background, coupled with the view of the taxi make this picture an unmistakable New York City scene.
An artists' reception will be held at the gallery on Thursday, August 4 from 6-8pm and the exhibition will run through September 8, 2022. Gallery hours are Tuesday and Wednesday 10a-6p, Thursday and Friday 10a-7p, Saturday 10a-6p, and Sunday 12-5p. Matted LIC is located at 46-36 Vernon Blvd, Long Island City, NY 11101.
