Sacred Encounters at the Monterey Museum of Art

September 01, 2023

Two photographs from my Transitional landscapes series are included in the exhibition Sacred Encounters at the Monterey Museum of Art.

Each breath both like and unlike every other

New world

Sacred Encounters presents an exploration into how photography engages with the sacred world,  and the ways that photographers experience and express these ideas through portraiture, architecture, landscape, and abstraction. The exhibition will feature a select group of California photographers working in a range of processes and in both black and white and color.  Participating photographs are Linda Connor, Eduardo Fujii, J. M. Golding, Roman Loranc, Richard Murai, Nadezda Nikolova, Manuello Paganelli and Kenneth Parker. From MMA’s collection, artists include Ansel Adams, Morley Baer, Martha Casanave, Edward Curtis, and more. The exhibition was curated by independent curator and art writer Helaine Glick.

The exhibition runs from September 7 through December 17, 2023. The museum is located at 559 Pacific Street, Monterey, CA 93940, and can be reached by phone at 831-372-5477. It is open Thursdays through Sundays from 11:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.
