Ah yes, centered.

It’s that time of year again, and by that time of year, I mean that it’s time for photo-eye Gallery’s annual Put a Bow on It gift guide!

Despite all of the difficulties that this year has put in front of us, I am happy to say that we have almost made it out! November and December bring promises of cozy fireside nights, snow-frolicking and beautiful meals with family and friends. Alongside the many joys of winter, however, are the many stresses of the holidays, the most prevalent of which is the pressure to find the perfect gifts for those special people in your life.

Luckily, photo-eye Gallery is here with a plethora of beautiful presents for your favorite photography or contemporary art lover! There’s nothing like the gift of a limited edition artwork to tell somebody that they’re truly one of a kind, and these unique, affordable pieces will supply beauty that lasts a lifetime. By purchasing from us, you’re not only supporting photo-eye Gallery, but also the independent artists who we represent as well!

photo-eye Gallery is thrilled to publish Fixed, a new series by artist Rachel Phillips, to the Photographer's Showcase. This summer, photo-eye was proud to introduce and exhibit Phillips's Divinations alongside our Michael Kenna retrospective, and, following suit, Fixed continues to explore notions of antique ephemera, vernacular photography, and the photograph's role in the Everyday. Injecting the work with a sense of play, Fixed is created by Phillip's fictional alter-ego Madge Cameron, born 1935, Founding Archivist at the Pacific Library Privé and Special Collections, and each work is the product of an 'interruption' during the process of digitizing the library's photographic holdings. Gallery Associate Lucas Shaffer asked Phillips to detail more about Madge, how the project came to be, as well as how it fits in with Phillips's previous work.

photo-eye Gallery is excited to publish Divinations a series by California based photographer Rachel Phillips on the Photographer's Showcase. While Divinations is Rachel's first portfolio on the Photographer's Showcase, a selection of prints from her Field Notes series were on view in our 2014 Photo Objects and Small Prints exhibition. Like Field Notes, Divinations layers new black-and-white imagery on top of antique ephemera lending old objects new context, meaning, and aesthetic. Phillips combines imagery based on divinations, styles of fortune-telling, with 19th Century cabinet card portraits in, as the artists describes, a "playful and poignant attempt at using the proverbial crystal ball to see into the lost past, rather than the unknown future." The result is a unique and sumptuous object filled with whimsy, intrigue, and a touch of mystery. Selections from Divinations are currently on view at photo-eye Gallery alongside Michael Kenna: A Retrospective, and Lucas Shaffer spoke with Rachel Phillips to learn more about how the series came to be.
