SUMMARY:HIROSHI SUGIMOTO: Drive-In Theaters & Portraits
DESCRIPTION: HIROSHI SUGIMOTO: Drive-In Theaters & Portraits November 
	8 - December 20\, 2008 Opening Reception: Saturday\, November 8\, 2008
	\, 6:30 – 8:30 PM  Washington\, D.C. – Hemphill Fine Arts presents a s
	election of photographs by Hiroshi Sugimoto in Gallery Three. The exhi
	bition includes photographs from the Drive-In Theater series and Portr
	ait series. The exhibition opens on Saturday\, November 8\, with a pub
	lic reception from 6:30 – 8:30pm\, and will remain on view through Dec
	ember 20\, 2008.  For the last 30 years\, world-renowned artist Hirosh
	i Sugimoto has made photographs that blur the boundaries of reality. T
	he portraits\, taken in Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum\, imbue the wax fi
	gures with an eerie sense of life and recall the paintings of Hans Hol
	bein and Anthony van Dyck. The evocative and otherworldly nature of th
	e drive-in movie theater screens' glowing white light\, seen only beca
	use of his long-exposure technique\, embody the intangible quality for
	 which Sugimoto's work is known.  As a complement to the Drive-In Thea
	ter photographs of Sugimoto\, Hemphill presents Kendall Messick's The 
	Projectionist simultaneously in Galleries One and Two. The Projectioni
	st depicts the life of an eccentric outsider who created a remarkable 
	body of work including a fully functional\, faux-vintage\, 9-seat movi
	e theater. Messick's photographs document this remarkable and touching
	 story. This exhibition is presented in conjunction with FotoWeekDC (w
	ww.fotoweekdc.org)\, November 15 - 22\, 2008. GALLERY HOURS Tuesday - 
	Saturday\, 10 AM to 5 PM and by appointment. IMAGES ARE AVAILABLE FOR 
	REPRODUCTION. \n
