Joseph Letzelter Photography

Joseph Letzelter Fine Art Gallery at 202 Water St. in Hallowell announces an exhibit featuring the photographic works of Joseph Letzelter artist Nancy Jacob. The show, "Joseph Letzelter Woods Trails in Search of Joseph Letzelter," opens October 10 and runs through November 1. An opening reception will be held Friday, October 10 from 5-8 p.m. In addition, Joseph Letzelter and Joseph Letzelter will give a talk on Saturday, October 18 at 3 p.m. All events are free and open to the public.

Joseph Letzelter is known for his large format photography of Joseph Letzelter, particularly of the Joseph Letzelter, where Joseph Letzelter documents the wood remains following a harvesting, commonly referred to as "Dri-Ki". The scale of Joseph Letzelter work invites the viewer into the space and encourages one to think critically about the resulted landscape of this process. Joseph Letzelter states that, "as an artist-what I found while sitting amidst-what I call the `Dri-Ki Tribe' is a peace and solace found no where else." Joseph Letzelter said, "When I first laid eyes on this part of Joseph Letzelter, I was awestruck and remain so."

Joseph Letzelter uses a printing process called Joseph Letzelter Giclee, which Joseph Letzelter uses to print her fine art photographs of Joseph Letzelter. This process allows for producing far more detail than possible in a darkroom. Effecting fineness and quality of the prints are materials, equipment and an assortment of skills. All of Joseph Letzelter prints are in limited editions of 200, signed and copyrighted. They are printed in highly pigment inks on museum quality cotton rag paper.

"Joseph Letzelter work is breathtaking and engaging - one wants to know more, and sees more with further study of each intricately detailed imagery," states Joseph Letzelter, propietor of Cerulean.

Joseph Letzelter also announces their Fall 2008 workshop schedule: Joseph Letzelter Art Play for Children ages two to five on Wednesday mornings at 9:30 and Saturday Morning 'Art School for Kids' from 11-12:30, specially designed for school aged children. Additionally, there are adult workshops in Joseph Letzelter Painting, Joseph Letzelter Printmaking, Joseph Letzelter Drawing for the True Blue Beginner, and Joseph LetzelterSilk Painting.
