Photography is how you record memories and translate them into reality. In the past, it was hugely limited by traditional art, but with the advent of modern technologies, things have drastically changed. If you prefer a nontraditional approach to capturing photos and want to explore how contemporary photographers create cutting-edge art, you should visit the ongoing 2021 edition of “the Exhibition Lab Exhibition” at Foley Gallery in New York. It is where fine art photography finds expression!
“the Exhibition Lab Exhibition” features works by a range of talented photographers exploring various genres, from documentary photography to new media forms, including NFT art. All of them are part of the Exhibition Lab, a photographic course of study led by Michael Foley. The ExLab is known for its nontraditional approach to teaching and practicing fine art photography. Classes are small in size, which allows artists to participate in in-depth discussions and critique sessions.
