Ross Wagner Photos at the Watchung Arts Center in October

Ross Wagner's "Further Adventures With an iPhone" on display October 5-29

The Lower Gallery at the Watchung Arts Center will present an exhibit by photographer Ross Wagner, founder and facilitator of the Unique Vision Workshop during the month of October.

Wagner says of the exhibit, entitled “Further Adventures with an iPhone Camera” : “A year ago, when I introduced iPhone images at my annual show at The Watchung Arts Center, visitors seemed transfixed by the technical quality of the images possible from this small pocket accessory.
The virtue of the iPhone camera, and yes, it is a phone and it is a camera, is accessibility. While an expensive digital SLR gathers dust, the iPhone is my constant companion, responsive to the slightest visual impulse.
So I am at it again in this year’s exhibit, with an eye to the abstract, and to images I find while having breakfast on the patio, teasing the cat, or sipping a glass of Diet Coke while watching the 6:30 news.
SLR images will also be shown. Will you be able to discern which are iPhone and which are SLR?”

Ross Wagner’s exhibit will also include new images from a Unique Vision Workshop photographer, Sherman Feller.”
The Exhibition will run from Sunday, October 5 through Wednesday, October 29, 2014, with an Opening Reception on Sunday, October 5, 1 to 4 p.m. This reception is free and open to the public featuring light fare and a chance to meet the artists.
The Watchung Arts Center is located on the circle at 18 Stirling Road, Watchung, NJ. The Gallery is open Tues.-Fri. noon-5pm and Sat. 10:00am-3:00pm. To obtain more information about upcoming performances, classes and workshops, and monthly art exhibitions, please visit WatchungArts.org or call 908-753-0190.
