Photographs by Andrew Zimmermann at the Arts Club of Washington

The Arts Club of Washington Presents:

A new series of photographs by Andrew Zimmermann

“Colorado Summer”

May 5 - 29, 2010

Friday May 7, 6:30 – 9:00 PM

The Arts Club of Washington presents an exhibition of large format, black and white photographs by Arlington, VA based photographer Andrew Zimmermann.

The artist uses an 8 x 10 camera and traditional darkroom processes to reveal the changing forms of light, perception, and landscape. This series of images, which was created in and around Colorado’s Front Range, explores the constant flux of the natural world. Instead of presenting a series of landscapes as a static record of an unchanging place, Zimmermann expresses a vision of nature filled with stark contrasts of illumination and space. These images aspire to achieve in photography something Cezanne accomplished in painting: a disordering of our confidence in the consistency of vision.

Andrew Zimmermann lives and works in Arlington, Virginia. His work has been influenced not only by photographers, but also by old masters such as Titian and Cezanne, and 17^th century Chinese ink painters Dong Qichang and Bada Shanren.

The Arts Club of Washington is headquartered in the historic James Monroe House, located at 2017 I (Eye) Street NW, Washington, DC 20006, and is open 10 AM – 5 PM Tuesday through Friday, and 10 AM – 2 PM Saturday. The reception is free and open to all.

Andrew Zimmermann: Photographs

A Photographic Exhibition
November 21, 2008 from 5:30 to 7:30


Andrew has been making large format photographs for the past 10 years. Using a time-honored photographic process with large format view cameras, Andrew creates black and white silver gelatin prints that combine the virtues of the starkly literal and the rigorously abstract. Contact printed to the original size of the negatives and hand worked throughout the developing and printing process, his photographs are crisp, detailed, and intimate, fully maintaining the integrity of the negative. He focuses not on a particular subject, but instead investigates evocative forms and images that exist within the natural world, accentuating overlooked beauty and challenging the viewer's perception of reality.

Amico Artists encourage people to come and to invite anyone they feel would be interested in this type of work. All the photographs at the event are for sale to the public and light refreshments will be served. If you have any questions or would like to RSVP call Sara Stepahin 202.701.7514.

The event is also listed on facebook under "Andrew Zimmermann Photo Show". Amico Artists is a project of Campaign Digital, Inc., a new 501(c)(3) organization.
