Lug Nuts in the Sky, Gloria Kegeles

Holy Heat Shield, Gloria Kegeles

CHROME DREAMS, an automotive photography exhibit by Gloria Kegeles, is being presented this month at the Wendell Free Library’s Herrick Room Gallery in Wendell, Massachusetts. The bold and colorful images of restored vintage cars and trucks are created “in-camera” and are not computer-generated or altered. Often mistaken for paintings or computer-generated abstractions, her images are created simply with single exposures of available light, without filters, manipulations or digital enhancements. Kegeles combines the vehicles’ unique design features with the reflections in the mirror-like chrome and highly-polished car bodies. The results are bright and swirling distortions of unpredictable reflections, thus recapturing an altered dimension of photographic ingenuity and magic.

Kegeles, a resident of Wendell, has been a fine arts photographer for 28 years. Her initial work involved long-exposure night photography, first using city lights while flying at night. Later her night images included moonlight and nature compositions, and sometimes incorporated streaks of car taillights and streetlights.

An artist reception will be held on Saturday, December 19th from 1 – 3 p.m. CHROME DREAMS will be at the Wendell Library Gallery through December 30th and can be viewed during regular library hours , Tuesday 3 – 6, Wednesday 10 – 8, Saturday 9:30 – 3:30.

In addition to the current show at the Wendell Library, Kegeles will show at the co-op Gallery A3, opening during the Amherst Art Walk on February 4, 2010,

Kandinsky Yellow, Red, and Blue

"Concerning the Spiritual in Art
Originally published in 1911, Kandinsky compares the spiritual life of humanity to a large triangle similar to a pyramid; the artist has the task and the mission of leading others to the top by the exercise of his talent. The point of the triangle is constituted only by some individuals who bring the sublime bread to other people. It is a spiritual triangle which moves forward and rises slowly, even if it sometimes remains immobile. During decadent periods, souls fall to the bottom of the Triangle and men only search for the external success and ignore purely spiritual forces."
