Carl Chiarenza - whose extraordinary career as a photographer, writer, and teacher now spans five decades - has, until now, remained a name largely unknown among the pantheon of modern masters.His photographs, luminous, dark, coruscated with deep shadows and alive with the play of light, are challenging and abstract in their study of black and white in the time-honored tradition of chiaroscuro. His intention, to push photography beyond the boundaries of the 'real', to investigate the realms of imagination where space and surface intertwine and where perception of reality is transformed into a wholly visual experience."Pictures Come From Pictures" is a visually astounding testament to an artist of extraordinary power, intelligence, and imagination.
