Seeing the Unseen: Photographs by Harold E. Edgerton

Harold Edgerton was first of all a scientist and an electrical engineer who investigated, measured and sought new facts about natural phenomena. His photographic genius captured bullets in flight and athletes in motion; stopped the flutter of a hummingbird's wings; and produced the renowned coronet picture of a drop of milk as it splattered into a saucer.

Toured by Smith Kramer Fine Art Services, this exhibition consists of 50 black-and-white and color images and two videos. Seeing the Unseen bestows on us comprehension, increases our awareness and reveals new forms, subtle relationships of time and space and the essence of motion.

Kinetic Sculpture by Gregory Barsamian

Acclaimed New York City-based artist Gregory Barsamian creates, three-dimensional, animated sculptures that explore the language of the subconscious while celebrating the nature of dreams. Utilizing rotating mechanical armatures and synchronized strobe lights, Barsamian creates pieces that morph familiar objects in unexpected ways to suggest the alternative realities of the mind.

Really Digital
