“Out There” Photo Exhibit at Gallery 14 in Hopewell

“ETCHED 1”: This photograph by Barbara Warren is featured in “Out There,” her joint exhibition with David Ackerman and Bennett Povlow, on view through July 16 at Gallery 14 Fine Art Photography in Hopewell. A reception is on July 8 from 1 to 3 p.m.

Gallery 14 Fine Art Photography in Hopewell now features the works of artists David Ackerman, Barbara Warren, and Bennett Povlow in “Out There.” The exhibit is on view through July 16, with a Meet the Artists reception on Saturday, July 8 from 1 to 3 p.m.

“TAOS PUEBLO”: This work by Bennett Povlow is part of “Out There,” his joint exhibit with David Ackerman and Barbara Warren, on view through July 16 at Gallery 14 Fine Art Photography in Hopewell.

Ackerman’s exhibit, “The Long View,” looks at how, under the blazing sun of the desert Southwest, Utah reveals eons of building up and tearing down with dazzling colors, patterns, and shapes. Under inky black skies of the dry desert night, the same landscapes reveal longer views past the horizon to the distant universe.

In her exhibit “Pairs,” Warren notes that “each of us has our own way of seeing that shows through in our photography. The images in these pairs were taken many years and many miles apart, but exhibit similar compositions, themes, and/or moods. All of them reflect a bit of how I see the world.”

Povlow, from Elkins Park, Pa., explores “Taos Pueblo and Greenbackville, VA,” where at first blush the ancient Taos Pueblo in New Mexico and the obscure fishing village of Greenbackville in northern Virginia have nothing in common. But both are full of character and mystery in their own way. They each have their secrets. He invites viewers to be the judge.

Gallery 14 Fine Art Photography is located at 14 Mercer Street in Hopewell. It is open Saturday and Sunday from 12 to 5 p.m., or by appointment with an email to galleryfourteen@yahoo.com. For more information, visit gallery14.org
