"Simply Beautiful" Exhibition
Steven Kasher Gallery
This event has ended.
Steven Kasher Gallery presents an exhibition of limited edition prints from the National Geographic Image Collection. Simply Beautiful will feature thirty-five large-scale color photographs by over 25 National Geographic photographers. For the first time, the Image Collection’s vast archive of over 11 million images has been culled down to a concentrated selection representing the essence of beauty. These singular photographs have been transposed from their original National Geographic documentary narrative context into the realm of fine art.
The exhibition will be accompanied by the release of a new book: National Geographic Simply Beautiful Photographs edited by award-winning National Geographic photographer Annie Griffiths. Griffiths chose remarkable images from the Society's core mission areas: exploration, wildlife, culture, science, and nature. In her investigation of what creates beauty in a photograph, she has included chapters on light, composition, moment, time, palette and wonder.
