Artists & Photography

Summers, Andy

Andy Summers, world renown "Police" Guitarist, music composer, and  celebrated photographer.  Images are available from his "I'll Be Watching You" exhibition revealing behind the scenes moments of the break up and world tour of the historic rock band "The Police" during 1981 -1982. The photographs provide an intimate look at the rock stars themselves, and a chance to see what Andy saw of both his controversial band mates, Sting and Stewart Copleland, and the massive rock arenas audiences composed of impassioned, frenzied "Police" fans.  Summers' photographs are available in three sizes, and in a very limited quantity and each are hand signed.  Both the printing and the paper are of the highest quality.

Dwyer, Charles

To begin his compositions, Dwyer stages an entire scene, which includes costume design, make up, backdrops, and props.  He shares his vision with stylist Heather Hambrick and together they create the final set.  He then captures the image using a Mamiya camera with a 6 x 7 medium frame (the type often used by A. Lebowitz) or he may choose an ebony 4 x 5 instead.  His narrative style recalls a filmstrip featuring several consecutive images of the same subject.  Dwyer uses cutting edge techniques to come up with a final image.  From this collection of pictorialism, the ethereal beauties emerge for his pastels and oils.  His components are striking, bold and captivating.  Integrating yet another influence, he incorporates the glamour style of Peter Lindbergh, a major fashion photographer of present time.
