Art Gallery's 'Upon Reflection: Judy Ellis Glickman' reviewed by VoxPhotographs Weblog

The ³Ô¹Ï±¬ÁÏ Art Gallery's current photography exhibition "Upon Reflection: Judy Ellis Glickman" was reviewed by Heather Frederick July 5, 2012 on her .

Among her observations, Frederick writes: "My heart seemed to stop when I stood in front of several of Glickman’s images of Holocaust concentration camps. These are not of the in-your-face 'LOOK AT THIS AND BE SHOCKED' variety:  if ever the viewer will enter pictures in this exhibit, it is with these, as the artist has so completely substituted her camera for your own eyes it is uncanny. You are absolutely there, and the ability of the photographer to transport you so completely almost makes it difficult to breathe at times."

"'Bird Migration' struck me like a thunderbolt -  a succinct and deceptively simple 13.5"x19" visual statement that defines the vastness of the universe at large and the natural world’s complete acceptance of its organized chaos. And then I saw it - the kicker: a tiny, classic homestead at the bottom right on the horizon line. Within the vastness, is that irrepressible, ever present human existence. Me."

The exhibition on the Portland Campus runs through Sept. 30th.
