Post by artist Lauren Curtis who is currently exhibiting at the Gourgaud Gallery. I am sharing her blog for all to see!

Journey with me! (Solo photo show in NJ)

Travel is a huge inspiration to me and for my artwork!  I recently had an opening reception for my solo photography show called JOURNEYS at Gourgaud Gallery in Cranbury, NJ that focuses on mainly 35mm images from my travels in Eastern & Western Europe and the US.
The reception was a success with many visitors, including friends, family, collectors and people I hadn’t met before that read about the show in the press.  I was interviewed by 2 NJ blog sites and made a sale opening day!  Here are the links to the blogs so you can check them out:

Some of the most popular images in the show were the shot of the Native American family at the Grand Canyon, the Gaudi spires from the Sagrada Familia Cathedral in Barcelona and an in-camera double exposure I shot along the historic D&R Canal that runs through NJ & PA.  Among the cities explored in this show are Amsterdam, New Orleans, Budapest, Prague, Edinburgh and others.
I hope everyone who sees this show will be inspired to travel or at least research the art and culture of other US states and other countries…there’s so much beauty and similarity between cultures as well as fascinating differences to discover!
This exhibit will be up until 4/25/11 at Gourgaud Gallery,  Town Hall, 23A No. Main St., Cranbury, NJ. All work is for sale and 20% goes to supporting the gallery!  If you stop by the show, feel free to drop me an email or comment and let me know how you like it!  Enjoy the journey!!
