Opening Reception
Oct 16 6- 9pm
In Pas de Deux, artists V. Elizabeth Turk and Charles A. McCullers collaborate with Atlanta Ballet to create a suite of pictures that tap the potential and real energy of photography, process, and performance.
Masters of contemporary and antiquarian processes, Turk and McCullers channel the origins of photography to capture dance - human bodies expressing the exuberance of movement against gravity, serendipity and its risks, art at the moment creation-and its instant ephemeral passing.
This suite of images underscore the artistic qualities and collaborative energies that appeared as paintings thousands of years ago on the walls of caves. The patina and warmth, in these photographs are a bow to the liturgy of the photographic arts, and testimony to an alchemy that defies explanation. The recipe is magical and irreproducible: humanity + expression + collaboration = the sublime poetry of art.
