Capture, Tweak, & Print Workshop! – with Harris Fogel

“Digital technologies have unleashed a newfound ability to create images that embrace the passion at the core of the photographic aesthetic since its creation. Though the learning curve can be frustrating, the amount of creative control we have is staggering, as are our options and approaches!” says Harris Fogel, internationally acclaimed digital photography mastermind. He’ll discuss image capture, the role of color management and profiling from capture through development and printing, and how to best optimize work for export and printing. Using Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2 for digital workflow, he’ll explain and illustrate image formats and how they impact your work, and explore the use of software and hardware to help achieve the best image quality. This is definitely a double shot of Espresso workshop! – Just bring your camera.

Our dogma is that we are non-dogmatic, and exhibit a wide-range of work.

It is the only endowed gallery for the exhibition of contemporary photography in Philadelphia. Fogel has directed the Sol Mednick Gallery since 1997 and Gallery 1401 since 1999. Gallery 1401 is now celebrating its 10th anniversary. The Media Arts Department, home to the photography, film, digital video, and animation programs at the university, operates the galleries. In 2001, the Sol Mednick Gallery received the prestigious Photo Review Award for service to photography.
