Phil Bergerson | Sublime Encounters

Exhibition Dates: March 14 – April 18, 2009

Reception for the Artist: Saturday, March 14, 1-5pm

The gallery is pleased to announce our fifth exhibition by Canadian Phil Bergerson featuring his most recent work “Sublime Encounters”.

Spanning the last fifteen years, Phil Bergerson has traveled extensively across the United States, photographing cities both small and large. His last series, “Shards of America,” was an ironic commentary on the culture of the United States. It harnessed the best of documentary traditions, interweaving a selection of powerful themes to present a critical examination of America’s rich social landscape. In his most recent body of work, “Sublime Encounters,” Bergerson continues his investigations of cultural detritus of everyday life but with a more poetic approach. He is interested in exploring the complexities of what it is to be human with less emphasis on the American experience.
