FRIDAY DECEMBER 2
Charleston: Vanished Pieces, And Some Things Missed
Tara Vis Gallery
December 2, 5:00 - 8 pm
218C King Street
Tara Vis Gallery is proud to have Summerville's Douglas Carr Cunningham as December's featured photographer, beginning December 2nd, with his collection of views no longer seen, or ones about to be lost from view within the Charleston demographic. Ironically, his collection is shown when development is booming throughout the city.
As much as change is relentless in its advance, Cunningham's presentation of Charleston's past and present culture, and artifacts long-gone, reminds us of how quickly the Lowcountry has transitioned from historic antebellum city to nearly metropolitan status.
Featured are framed photographic prints in color, and black and white silver gelatin, with fine-detailed subjects and abstracts. Long-time Charleston residents will recognize the forgotten, yet familiar.
Douglas Carr Cunningham is renowned within Charleston's photographic arts community. The Post and Courier's
Charleston Scene last October interviewed him after he partnered with Iveta Butler to produce
Charleston: One City, One Soul. The black and white film-based exhibit emphasized the commonality, not division, of Charleston's citizens. Cunningham teaches youth and adults the finer points of photography at CunningFox Photo Education, Dorchester Two Adult Education and The Charleston Darkroom.
