Please join us at the Photo Moncton Wall of Fame Gallery on September 6th from 5 pm to 7 pm at the Blue Cross Center to meet photographer Nicolas Blouin at the opening of his new photographic effort, “FIGURES”.

Through his observation, Nicolas captured moments of heightened intimacy where he tends to entice the viewer yet suggest a sense of solitude.

Nicolas certainly pushes the limits of exposure to express the real and the fictional blurring into a fractured narrative that is disorienting and unforgettable.

The curious eye of the photographer moved effortlessly and playfully between documentary, street photography and art.

Joignez-vous à nous à la Galerie du mur de la renommée Photo Moncton le 6 septembre de 17h à 19h au Centre Croix Bleue pour rencontrer le photographe Nicolas Blouin à l’ouverture de son nouvel effort photographique, « FIGURES».

À travers son observation, Nicolas a capté des moments d'intimité accrue où il a tendance à attirer le spectateur tout en suggérant un sentiment de solitude.

Nicolas repousse certes les limites de l'exposition pour exprimer le réel et le fictif dans un récit fracturé, désorientant et inoubliable.

Le curieux œil du photographe s'est déplacé sans effort et de manière ludique entre documentaire, photographie de rue et art.

Dear friends, 
I'm excited to invite you to an exhibition of my photographs, “Watercolour in the rain”, showing January 15th through February 27th.

Natural settings and urban areas inspires much of my image making, where I attempt to explore the interaction between light and shadow performing in graceful harmony. This journey led me to create the collection “Watercolour in the rain”, and it expresses the inspiration I get from creating graphic photographs through the reflective colours rainy weather can display.

______________________________________

Chers amis,
Je suis heureux de vous inviter à une exposition de mes photographies, "Aquarelle sous la pluie", montrant du 15 janvier au 27 février.

Ces trajets mon amené à créer la collection "Aquarelles sous la pluie" et elle exprime l'inspiration que je reçois de la pluie pour créer des photographies graphiques par l'entremise des couleurs réfléchissantes que le temps pluvieux peut parader.

The Moncton Gallery is proud to present Dale Preston Photography on display until February 28. #CultureMoncton #art

Photography by Maurice Henri

​

Maison TAIT House - 293 Main St, Shediac, NB

The collection will show for the months of October, November and December. 

For the “Watercolour in the rain” project, I invested countless hours contemplating how to photograph my interpretation of the peaceful and magical side of rainy climate, using bold contrasting light and dark colours to evoke a tranquil state of calm within the chaos of rainy and windy weather. With this assignment, my aim is to create compositions that stimulate contemplation.
Reflections, movement and multiple exposures led me to connect with the theme and capture fragments of reality that we often overlook

The evening will consist of a fine dining experience with an audio-visual presentation by the artist, followed by a question & answer period.

The public is invited to view the art exhibit Ghost in the Machine by photographer Robert LeBlanc in the Capitol Art Gallery. This will be the first exhibit to take place in the newly renovated Capitol Art Gallery, located in the lobby of the Capitol Theatre.

Robert LeBlanc, originally from Memramcook, has had a fascination for photography since a very young age. A proficient musician by trade, he began to take photography more seriously in the late seventies.

Ghost in the Machine
For this exhibit, the artist explored abstraction, producing work that is more about texture, color and composition. “I employed closely cropped pictures, creating ...vibrant images resembling abstract paintings. Viewers will identify with different elements in each photograph. Where some may see faces, others may connect to a feeling of space and time”, said LeBlanc.

• Dates have been announced - November 9th-12th, 2017
