Prehistory by photographer Ellen Pizer
The Center for Photography in Madison is sponsoring an exhibition titled “Driven to Distraction: Photos by Ellen Pizer” from May 10th to June 18th at the Wisconsin Academy’s Steenbock Gallery, located at 1922 University Avenue.
The gallery is hosting an opening reception from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday, May 15th. This event and the ongoing exhibition are free and open to the public.
According to Pizer, “As an urban photographer, I do not head off on my explorations in search of specific images. What I find most fascinating are the designs, shapes and shadows created by objects others may consider urban blight.”
“It is in this journey of discovery that I lose all sense of time and place. Nothing else seems to matter except what is framed within the viewfinder of my camera. This is when my heart starts pounding and I am forever lost in my own world of abstract designs.”
