My Journey from Film Fidelity to Digital Metaphor
A Lecture by Photographer Robert Weingarten
Thursday, September 16 | 7:00 p.m.

I would have liked to have made this a meet up but do to the requirement of a reservation this cannot be set up as meet up.

Photographer Robert Weingarten, whose work ranges from classic black-and-white portraits to postmodern mashups, explores three of his radically different approaches to photography: using film to record nature, digital imaging to achieve abstraction, and sophisticated collage to create biographical portraits.
