Bigger is Better!
Dennis Manarchy is in the process of building what must be the largest camera 35' long with a negative 4 1/2 ft by 6 ft. Not to capture panoramic landscapes or the Grand Canyon, but to photograph single individuals. A single capture of our vanishing cultures.

Final Friday February
StopLight Gallery
So we started at the beginning which is always a good place to start at the StopLight Gallery where work by Lee Shiney is on display. Added to the 24/7 gallery are three windmill elements as well as two works on unmounted canvas. Stop by or better take a nice walk by the StopLight Gallery and check out some of his newest work.

Then we headed across the street to Gallery XII where John Ellert is the featured artist with his show, "Larger Than Life".
Midwest Center For Photography
Next on the list was going to Linda K. Robinson with a retrospective at Midwest Center For Photography.
Bob Schwan Studios
Next to Linda K.'s is Bob Schwan's which was previewing the Palette to Palate fund raising show to benifit KETCH. Bob sez he want to paint my picture and Him is supposed to email Bob some good photos of me...(like there are any bad ones!)

Art Show at the People Show
A Show of People
Dale Strattman
Forget about pixels and digital and put aside thoughts of instant gratification and embrace the pruest form and principals of photography in this show of by celebrated Wichita photographer Dale Strattman.
You may be led to believe that Strattman has Dektol and D76 coursing through his veins but it only takes a few moments of converstion to realize that this guy is the real deal. A man who cares about photography and sharing the passion of his natural talent. Stattman is known for his black and white photography and currently is an adjunct professor at Wichita State University where he continues his lifelong calling of teaching students the art of seeing through a camera lens, of composition and of the exectution of the perfect print.
The exhibition is in the main gallery of City Arts (334 N. Mead Street, Wichita, KS 67202) and the show has been extended to run through February 25th to include the Final Friday in February.
