The Forgiveness Book

Gino — Fri, 29 Feb 2008 02:20:15 +0000

My dear friend Jacqui Bishop invited me a number of years ago to create a series of black-and-white portraits and photo-collages to illustrate a second edition of her fantastically useful book “How To Forgive When You Don’t Know How.”

I’m pleased to announced that publication is complete, and the book is now available via www.innerkids.net — and hopefully soon thru Amazon.com, where copies of out-of-print copies of her books sell for collector’s edition prices…

Look for a second editon of another of Jacqui’s books: “How to Love Yourself When You Don’t Know How” (perhaps with a new set of photos by yours truly) sometime in the near future.

Sincere thanks to all our friends who acted as models!

2008 Digital Infrared Workshops

Gino — Fri, 29 Feb 2008 01:33:26 +0000

I’m very excited about what’s now possible in the magical realm of Digital Infrared. The seminar Fuji’s Brandon Remler and I did in January at at B&H was enthusiastically received, and we’ll be presenting a similar seminar, featuring Fuji’s factory-modified Is-Pro and IS-1digital infrared cameras, at SPE in Denver in March. I’ll also be leading a number of hands on in-depth 5-day infrared workshops in 2008.

(Check the “Teaching” menu at the top of the page for a detailed 2008 workshop schedule.)

Check out the two “infrared” entries below for more about infrared.

May ‘07 in Norway

Gino — Sat, 02 Jun 2007 18:29:31 +0000

Norway in May was amazing, as usual. Great workshop, fantastic roadtrip to shoot industry in Sweden, and being in Oslo for the National Day on the 17th was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The exhibition of my landscape photographs at Fotografiens Hus Gallery in downtown Oslo was a success, and there’s talk of another in 2008.

My dear friend, master digital printmaker Amadou Diallo has just released his first book: Mastering Digital Black and White: A Photographer’s Guide to High Quality Black-and-White Imaging and Printing. The book covers everything you need to know, from resolution, to output, to aesthetics.

There’s even a dedicated website where you can download a sample chapter - which just so happens to feature an interview with yours truly ; ) Check it out!

Exhibition Press

I’m happy to report that my Exhibition and the Workshop Pål Otnes and I are presenting in Oslo are already receiving favorable attention from the photography press in Norway. Take a look at fotografi.no, the website for Norway’s best photo magazine.

Spring In Norway!

Gino — Fri, 20 Apr 2007 20:36:00 +0000

“Seeing Is Believing,” a gallery exhibition of my black-and-white landscape photographs, opens on May 4th at Fotografiens Hus in downtown Oslo. There’s a reception party from 6-9pm if you’re in the neighborhood.

The prints that make up this exhibition feature images made in Norway (happily, I’ve been visiting Norway often since 2003 to teach and to photograph), as well as the US, Canada, Western Europe, and Japan. In addition to the exhibition Pål Otnes and I will be teaching a special Digital Workshop, and we may even take a road trip into Sweden to photograph abandoned industrial sites. In fact, it looks like I’ll be spending most of the month May in Norway - including May 17th, which is the Norwegian National Day; I hear it’s quite a party!

Innova Paper

I’m pleased to announce a newly formed strategic alliance with Innova Digital Art, who manufactures and distributes an amazing line of inkjet papers. Innova is sponsoring my “Seeing Is Believing” Gallery Exhibition in Oslo, and will be featuring my work in an upcoming issue of their newsletter. Shades of Paper has all of the Innova papers - and they’re a pleasure to deal with. Tell Jimmy Doyle I sent you.

The Susan Spiritus Gallery, which represents my work on the West Coast, has a whole new website - with my work in the slide show here.

Digital Infrared!

Gino — Tue, 14 Nov 2006 15:45:01 +0000

My friends at Fuji recently loaned me a ProS3 UV/IR Digital 35mm camera that I brought to workshops in Norway in September and New Mexico in October. This camera is made for forensic use (think “CSI”), but take a look at these B&W Infrared Landscapes I made with it. These pictures were shown as part of a presentation I did for Fuji at the Photo Plus Expo in NY.
