A Group Exhibition of Works
by Spectrum Art Gallery Members.
Spectrum Art Gallery is proud to present the 2022 Member’s Exhibition. We are excited to show new works from our membership, including members who have recently joined our collective. This show will be an open theme, so members are able to highlight their favorite works they would like to share. Our membership is an eclectic group comprised of photographic artists from many different walks of life. We’ve come together to express our joy of photography, and continue to do so well into our current era. Forty years ago, exhibitions of photography as an art form appeared very infrequently, especially in the San Joaquin Valley. It was at that time that a growing number of photographic artists congregated in Photo- Synthesis, a darkroom rental gallery establishment. In 1980, this group formed a not-for-profit cooperative and created a local forum for fine art photography.
Later that year, the group rented a space in Fresno’s Tower District, and referring to the broad variety of work produced by the charter members called itself “Spectrum Gallery.” The present is an exhilarating time in which we now have many traditional photographers, photographic artists, and creatives that push the boundaries of photography. This exhibition will show a collection of our members’ work. Come on down to the gallery for ArtHop and view original and refreshing photographic art by our fine members.
