A Personal Approach to Photography:
Huntington Witherill - Lecture and Slide Presentation
Nationally acclaimed photographer Huntington Witherill will give a lecture and slide presentation on the subject of his personal approach to the photographic medium over the past 36 years. This free event is sponsored by University of Washington, Friday Harbor Labs & Freestyle Photographic Supplies and is open to the general public. The event will be held on Tuesday, August 29th at 7:00 p.m. in the Lecture Hall at Friday Habor Labs.
Having studied photography in the early 1970’s with such notables as Ansel Adams, Wynn Bullock, Steve Crouch and Al Weber, Huntington Witherill has remained faithful to his classical photographic training while progressively transitioning toward a more contemporary approach to the medium. Since beginning photography in 1970, his images have been featured in more than 90 individual and group exhibitions in museums and galleries throughout the world.
His photographs represent a remarkably diverse approach to the medium and include landscapes, studies of pop-art, botanical still-lifes, urban architecture, and digital imaging. Additionally, his work has been published in two award winning hard-cover monographs entitled: Orchestrating Icons (2000) and Botanical Dances (2002). In 1999, Witherill received the “Artist of the Year” award from the Center for Photographic Art, Carmel, CA.
