Stuart Rome: Wonders
Stuart Rome followed in the footsteps of many of the great pro-genitors of natural science and journeyed to the heart of the Florida Peninsula. His celebrated landscape images draw their inspiration and take their lead from the writings, journals, and illustrations of many of these important early naturalists. They examine the visual evidence present in the landscape of our cultural priorities and history and expand upon the standard landscape vocabulary to build a complex language of layers, networks and connections in the landscape. Exhibitions at the Southeast Museum of Photography’s LYONIA GALLERY present photography related to environmental, land-use, local history and regional culture that complement the educational themes and environmental awareness of the Lyonia Center. The museum gallery occupies display space immediately adjacent to the environmental exhibits area of the Center.
Open during Lyonia Environmental Center's hours of operation: 9 a.m. - 5:30 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. Friday and Saturday, and 1 - 5 p.m. Sunday.

SURFLAND: Joni Sternbach
Historic technique meets contemporary subject in the stunning luminosity of SurfLand. On the beaches of Montauk’s Ditch Plains and Rhode Island to Malibu, Del Mar and Rincon in California; and most recently on Australia’s Pacific coast, Sternbach’s distinctive process lures surfers to pose for her camera and results in what the photographer calls “part performance, part laboratory.” http://smponline.org/ex_sternbach_surfland.html MUSEUM HOURS: OPEN – Tues, Thurs, Fri: 11 a.m. - 5 p.m. Wed: 11 a.m. - 7 p.m. Weekends: 1 - 5 p.m. CLOSED – Mondays. Free admission.

Jan. 27, 6 - 8 p.m.
Joni Sternbach: Artist's Talk, Book Signing and Opening Reception
Captured directly on the shoreline, Sternbach’s images possess the immediate quality of a singular print created then-and-there as she captures portraits of surfers in tintype, a 19th-century technique little changed since its invention and first used during the American Civil War. The procedure is labor intensive, with chemistry mixed and applied to metal plates just seconds before each exposure; meaning that the chemicals must be hand-applied, exposed and developed before the plate dries. The exposure time is also very long, requiring stillness on behalf of the subject for many seconds. http://smponline.org/ex_sternbach_surfland.html

Jan. 27 - April 22,
FLUIDRIVE-MODERN DAGUERROTYPES: Curtis Wehrfritz
"The series of work, entitled "Fluidrive" is focused on the use of ritual. I am interested in a lyric image that can be revisited by the viewer in the way one re-visits the feelings created in a song or prose. The daguerreotype is kind of a reliquary that you can hold in your hands and use like a prayer box. The fact that these "mirrors" last forever and have the ability to render subjects almost as a hologram puts us in a discussion with our own memories," Curtis Wehrfritz. MUSEUM HOURS: OPEN – Tues, Thurs, Fri: 11 a.m. - 5 p.m. Wed: 11 a.m. - 7 p.m. Weekends: 1 - 5 p.m. CLOSED – Mondays. Free admission.
