MT Tremper Fine Arts presents Seven Summits, curated by Matthew Porter, featuring works by Michele Abeles, Shannon Ebner, Roe Ethridge, Miranda Lichtenstein, Arthur Ou, Michael Vahrenwald, and Hannah Whitaker
Seven Summits is a group photography exhibition featuring fourteen pieces by seven artists. Recalling the mountaineering challenge of climbing the highest peak on each of the seven continents, Seven Summits highlights the practice of artists whose adventuresome spirit leads them straight to the source of their subject matter, whether it be found inside the studio or across the country. Each artist is represented by two pieces—separated by wide geographical margins—that reframe the tradition of expedition photography within their independent creative visions.
The opening reception will include presentations by visual artists Nayland Blake, Arthur Ou, Boru O’Brien O’Connell, and Dan Torop.
