Mad River Valley Arts (Mad Arts) presents Lisa Dimondstein, Julie Parker and Sandra Shenk in Abstract^2.
These three women photographers are dedicated to radicalizing the photo as image.
They abstract from a pre-existing abstract sculpture with the aim to capture the essential properties and relationships of the original abstract concept, and in doing so they remove themselves from any context or specific content or representation. The process involves eliminating any reference to real-world objects or situations and to focus only on the inherent structures and relationships.
The Cold Hollow Sculpture Park, in Enosburg Falls, has over 70 large abstract sculptures by renowned artist David Stromeyer. The photographs of Lisa, Julie and Sandra
are inventive abstractions from David’s sculpture. They utilize an in-camera multiple exposure technique to explore the intricate relationship between color, texture, movement, line and form.
