MH ART & FRAMING GALLERY and PWP present

AMERICANA
A PHOTOGRAPHY EXHIBIT

Americana! Say the word and iconic images spring to mind — the American flag, apple pie, or the hometown team in summer.

MH Art & Framing Gallery in conjunction with PWP (Professional Women Photographers) present an exhibition of photography that takes a fresh look at the American image in a time of globalization and multiculturalism within and outside our borders.

Members of PWP, an organization of nearly 200 photojournalists, fine arts and commercial photographers, explore their personal vision of Americana. From the nostalgic to the elegiac, political commentary to the deeply personal, documentary to abstract, a rich mosaic emerges. Hung salon style to accommodate a large number of images, this exhibition opens a visual dialogue on the view of America from these photographers.

To mark the opening of “Americana” MH Art & Framing Gallery and PWP invite the press and public to a reception in the gallery on Saturday evening, April 17, 2010 from 6 – 9 PM, 9 West 20th St. (between 5th and 6th Aves.), 212.242.1252.

The exhibition will be on view April 17 through May 22, 2010. Hours are Monday – Friday, 10 AM – 7 PM and Saturday, 10 AM to 6 PM.

Professional Women Photographers is a not-for-profit 501 (c) (3) organization.
