As we show work in Ross and Pease Galleries through the year, we are always excited about the ways different the different media we show manifest itself. Photography is one such example, where one instrument can create vastly different results. In the Market, we are showcasing wet-plate collodion prints, digital photographs, wood-printed photographs, and even photographs sewn into leaves. Get to know our artists below!
The Market runs through December 18, open weekdays 9-5 p.m. and Saturdays 12-6 p.m.
