'Photography On Unusual Surfaces' Exhibit On Display Now Through Oct. 2

The "Photography on Unusual Surfaces" exhibit will showcase five artists' pieces now through Oct. 2 at The Arts Barn.

MONTGOMERY COUNTY, MD — As part of “Photography Across the City,” Gaithersburg’s Arts on the Green presents Photography on Unusual Surfaces with an invitational metal sculpture exhibition. The exhibits are on display now through Oct. 2 at The Arts Barn.

Meet the artists and view their works at an artists reception July 17 from 1 to 3:30 p.m. The receptions for the Gaithersburg Camera Club exhibit at Kentlands Mansion and the award-winning images from the Maryland Photography Alliance exhibit at the activity center at Bohrer Park also will be held that afternoon. Attendees are invited to visit all three galleries.

Traditionally, photographs were printed on glass and metal plates. In recent years, artists have returned to this type of support medium as well as other non-paper surfaces. For this exhibit, five photographers were asked to display their imagery that was printed on both metal and acrylic. As a complement to the photography work, two metal sculptors were also invited to share their work.
