A GIRL AND HER ROOM: Rania Matar
Rania Matar has produced an exhibition and a book of unique and subtle power. Focusing on contemporary young women from vastly differing cultures in the United States and Lebanon her project, A Girl and Her Room, reveals the complex lives of her subjects in the unique setting of the girls’ own rooms. Besides the expected cultural and economic differences and similarities that inevitably are drawn out using such an approach, these portraits of the girls and their bedrooms—reveal a dizzying array of personalities, dreams, hopes, wishes and frustrations in settings that are clearly expressions of the girls’ individual identities. The nuances shown in each room, and in the portrait of each young woman, reveal an acute photographer’s eye for telling detail. Closed Mondays; OPEN – Tues, Thurs, Fri: 11 a.m. - 5 p.m. Wed: 11 a.m. - 7 p.m. Weekends: 1 - 5 p.m.

EDGE TO EDGE: Vintage Panoramic Photography in Florida
What panoramic photographs add to the record of the natural environment and of the social and cultural history of Florida is a magic that is both aesthetic and psychological, appealing to our innate sense of awe in the presence of dramatic sights. This exhibition of more than 200 vintage panoramic photographs and original vintage postcards draws out the fascinating history of this unique style of photography from Florida’s “golden years” in the early twentieth century. Collected from four significant public collections and private holdings, these images show us a long-vanished image of the sunshine state in some of its proudest and most dramatic moments. Curated by Jay Mechling. Closed Mondays; OPEN – Tues, Thurs, Fri: 11 a.m. - 5 p.m. Wed: 11 a.m. - 7 p.m. Weekends: 1 - 5 p.m.

ANTHOLOGY 2012: Contemporary Photography
The range and breadth of styles, techniques, themes and subject matter used by contemporary photographers presents a broadening and a deepening of the field of serious photography in ways that have re-energized and stimulated the entire profession.

Exhibiting photographers: Lauren Henkin , Jennifer Schlesinger-Hanson, Shen Wei, Philipp Scholz Rittermann, Nicola Dill, Mary Ellen Bartley, Alex Leme, David Pace, Judith Fox, John Chakeres, Scott Dalton, Brad Temkin, Anderson and Low, Jean-Christian Bourcat, David Rochkind, Dominic Chavez, Alexandra Huddleston, Toni Greaves, Emma Livingston, Lisa Kessler, Eliot Dudik, Graham Miller, Daniel Mirer and Dianora Niccolini. Closed Mondays; OPEN – Tues, Thurs, Fri: 11 a.m. - 5 p.m. Wed: 11 a.m. - 7 p.m. Weekends: 1 - 5 p.m.

APPREHENDING NATURE/NATURE APPREHENDING
The exhibition Apprehending Nature/Nature Apprehending is comprised of two bodies of work by Florida photographer Eric Breitenbach, both dealing with aspects of the natural environment. Apprehending Nature stems from careful examinations and playful photographic experiments with common plant life, most of which were found in the photographer’s own backyard. Nature Apprehending approaches common plant life in Florida from a different perspective – as a reflection of the adaptability and resilience of nature.
