May 26 – June 25: PHOTOGRAPHY + ITERATIONS   

Summer has arrived, and Cumberland Gallery is kicking off the season with Photography + Iterations, the first of three summer group shows.  Photography by Jack Spencer, Kristina Varaksina, Max Shuster, Susan Bryant, Jenny Gummersall, and Greg Sand will occupy the first gallery. Demonstrating the countless roles taken on by photography throughout its relatively short history, this show offers a multi-faceted curation of photographic media. Disciplines range from Susan Bryant’s experiments with early photographic techniques to Jack Spencer's iconic documentations to Max Shuster’s curious installation shots.

In the lower space, we will highlight artists who rather than practice photography, use photographic techniques or references, including new digital collage prints by visiting artist Leonard Stokes. Additional multimedia works by Red Grooms, Ben Dallas, Jeri Eisenberg, Billy Renkl, and Tom Judd offer an arrangement of visual ideas that explore ways in which photography and fine art merge.
