Philip Trager (b. 1935), Glastonbury, 1976, Gelatin silver print

OBERLIN.- An exhibition of more than 75 photographs by Connecticut-born architectural and dance photographer Philip Trager (b. 1935) just opened at the Allen Memorial Art Museum (AMAM) at Oberlin College and will be on view through June 10, 2007. Philip Trager's luminous and compelling photographs reveal a distinctly personal approach to form and place. The exhibition of gelatin silver, platinum and Iris prints includes evocative images of New England and New York City in the 1970s, elegiac portraits of the villas of Palladio in the 1980s, and glimpses of the ever-changing face of Paris in the 1990s. Trager's architectural photographs capture the subtleties of our built environment with singular nuance and skill. They have become landmarks in architectural photography and standard documents for architectural and art historians as well as architects. Lire plus sur www.Artdaily.org
