Photography Exhibit: "In the Mind's Eye" by Renata Rainer

"In the Mind's Eye," photography exhibit by Renata Rainer

 "In the Mind's Eye," silver glycerin photographs and montages by Renata Rainer will be on exhibit in the Martucci Gallery at the Irvington Public Library, from October 2 to October 30.  Renata Rainer uses an SLR camera, develops her film by hand in her own darkroom and assembles her images using a light box.  This exhibit will include landscapes, still lifes, and portraits.  She uses a variety of black and white photography techniques: photomontage, collage, infra-red photography and the use of paper negatives. Her works reflect her love of nature, art history and music. The many-layered images are atmospheric and evocative.  Rainer, MFA, has worked as a graphic designer for Newsweek, taught art and photography at the Pelham Art Center; Marymount, Tarrytown; at SUNY Purchase and Manhattanville College. She has exhibited at Lyndhurst, the Hudson River Museum; Boca Raton Museum; the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington, D.C.; the Harry Ransom Humanities Research Center at the University of Texas, Austin and the Neuberger Museum at SUNY Purchase. The Martucci Gallery at the Irvington Public Library is open Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays, from 10 am to 5 pm; Tuesdays and Thursdays, from 10 am to 9 pm. The Gallery is handicapped accessible and free parking is available for library visitors in front and behind the Irvington Library.
