Valhall Arts has recently expanded into a second space in the museum, with plans to explore wet dark room techniques, including “cliche verre”, pinhole photography and other vintage styles and techniques.

The main gallery exhibition will feature works created with a nod to these vintage styles.

Featuring Cathy Becker, Laura Brent, Griffin Marsh and Rae Stimson.

Becker and Marsh, the Wyoming contingent, (both are from Casper) have produced fine hand crafted works of art using various traditional printing techniques. The mastery of these difficult methods and the skill and detail is evidenent in the photographs. Stimson, an artist from Boulder, has produced small hand colored treasures, with deep narratives, and mysterious, almost eerie elements. Brent, the director of Valhall Arts and curator of the exhibit, rounds out the exhibit with a unique look into classical techniques using pinhole cameras and other camera-less methods.

Please contact the gallery to make an appointment.

Coming in April: Valhall Arts celebrates its 3rd Anniversary, more details coming soon!
