Renee Gallery

Through May 29th, 2009.  Renee Gallery. Miami Art GalleriesRenee Gallery, located on Miami's Calle Ocho, is presenting an exhibition titled The Nature of Things, featuring current photographs by Antonia Wright Clyde Butcher through May 29th, 2009.

Artist Antonia Wright celebrates her Miami homecoming with a photography exhibition in conjunction with her longtime mentor, the legendary Clyde Butcher. Wright has teamed up with Butcher to present The Nature of Things, two divergent collections of landscape photography. Wright’s bits of the natural world become oddities in the urban environment while Butcher’s isolated landscapes assume an exotic and alien appeal

For Wright, exhibiting side by side with Butcher has brought her full circle. She began her photography career in the Everglades apprenticing for the conservation-landscape photographer. Her work has evolved to employ photography, poetry, performance, installation, and video art, using the interaction between these forms to question the world around her. Noted for The Keys Project, which examined the idea of ownership through the collecting and documenting of keys, The Nature of Things is Wright’s exploration and disruption of environment.

Clyde Butcher’s black and white photographs explore his personal relationship with the environment. The exquisite beauty and depth of his work draw the viewer into a relationship with nature. For more than forty years, he has been preserving on film the untouched areas of the landscape.
