Two Stars, Two Photographers, We're all Winners

Greetings Gossip Lovers,

Yes, I must mention theater again. But this time only as it pertains to the photography of these two lucky photographers.

Lucky you ask?

Well look at these pictures say I!













Just imagine it. A visual artist with actors as subjects. What bounty! All that passion. That fear. The anger, joy, jealousy, humor, despair, contrivance, pain - not to mention the great lighting.

Pardon me for going on - but it's hard to conceive of a more marvelous marriage. THOUGH;
there are other fine ones, such as the upcoming marriage between New Hampshire Theatre Project and Haley Farm Gallery in Kittery, Maine. (Bare with me. The tie-in will soon reveal itself).

The two are collaborating on a photography show (March 12-28) that features the work of Sofia Piel and Stephen Gianotti, taken of NHTP performers over the past 20 year period. (Delivered as promised, and sooner than you thought).

Just take a gander at these few samples. Utterly delicious, wouldn't you agree.

And get this Gossip Lovers; Haley Gallery’s Jackie Abramian will give all sales' proceeds AND donate a percent of any sales from the gallery’s usual stable to NHTP. Gold Star for the lovely lady! That goes well beyond collaboration. That's some real support.

The exhibition is in conjunction with NHTP’s “Entr'Acte,” another exciting event in celebration of the theater's surviving and thriving all these years.

Hum, makes you think that maybe Genevieve Aichele has been doing something right over there in her little corner of the theater world, with her shows and school programs and workshops and the like. – Well I say give HER a gold star too!

And in fact kudos and congrads to all of you. You make the art community proud.

Yours in appreciation and respect

Gossip Lady

PPS: The guy in the center photo is no newcomer to the blog. Check out the January 21 posting. One of my favorite and another applaud for theater's visual artists.
