Photographer, Elliot Charney presents the beauty of Thailand and its ancient culture in his exhibition, Picturing Thailand, showing at LeSo Gallery. Charney, recipient of the 2013 Toledo Museum of Art's Palmer Scholarship, spent two months of photographic exploration in Thailand capturing eloquent images of a foreign people, land and culture from the perspective of an unknowing traveler. Charney brings light to Thai landscapes and cultural scenes, accentuating their beauty without making them seem ‘oriental’ or ‘exotic.’ Opening reception on Friday, February 7, 7–9pm; gallery hours 12-4pm Saturdays and Sundays. A closing reception/artist talk will be held on Friday, February 21 from 7-9pm.
Parking is available along Starr Ave. and across the street at the Sports Center. LeSo Gallery, 1527 Starr Ave. lesogallery.com
