Leica Gallery

IMG_9801      Situated in Soho is the Leica Gallery, a gallery “Dedicated to the fascination of photography.” Thanks to Professor Eversley, Our IDC class has been privileged to go on so many trips year, allowing us to learn so much about all different types of art. We have experienced sculptures, paintings, drawings and multimedia. However, one form art we did not explore was photography.

Photography is a unique form of art. It takes a special skill to be able to capture a moment in time and generate life, emotion and energy onto a piece of paper. Personally, I find photography very fascinating.IMG_9795

Currently, the Leica gallery is hosting an exhibit called LIFE Across America, which features photos from a number of times, places and memories of 20th century America. I found myself walking around the gallery with mixed emotions. Some pictures were sad, some were funny, and many were just so easy to connect to—this artwork will speak to everyone
