FALL ART EXHIBIT
Manuel Rotenberg Returns


Septmeber 15- Dec 19, 2008

Fall Art Exhibition: Manuel Rotenberg

Our featured artist will display new photos from September 15 to December 19, his third show at the Faculty Club. In this display he will examine the "gallery effect," that is, how ordinary snapshots take on significance by virtue of being grouped thematically and displayed on a wall rather than in an album. The show, entitled Sitting (mostly), consists of street shots taken of people relaxing in various ways in Paris, New York and San Diego.

Although Rotenberg has been interested in photography since 1955, it has become a serious endeavor since he became Professor Emeritus. He now concentrates on performance photography and has permanent rotating displays of his work in the Department of Theatre and Dance as well as at Dance Place, in Liberty Station the old Naval Training Center) on Point Loma. His dance photos often appear at the Mandel Weiss Theater and in various dance and theater journals.
