October 15th – December 1st, 2009.

The design approach Michael Elkan acquired as an architect has intuitively informed his approach to making photographs.  Michael’s first solo exhibition at Bellevue Gallery will include signed, limited edition prints of the highest archival quality.  In composing an image, Michael strives to strengthen and refine the essential concept through the elimination of superfluous visual elements.  What is retained is there to communicate the emotional impact of the subject, the quality of light or sense of place with intentional clarity.  An opening reception will be held on October 15th, 2009 from 6:00 – 8:00 p.m.
