We’ve been hanging art in Studio B’s lounge - at the very leisurely pace of two artists a year; Join us early next month for an opening that’s almost a closing. Coleman’s work has been hanging at Q since June, and Q engineer Colin Flemming likes the work so much he bought a piece and took it home months ago :), but we’ll have a replacement hanging in time for the show.
Please RSVP via Eventbrite! Space is limited, and we’d love to know how many folks might show up.
Coleman Rogers spent his high-school years near Detroit, working in his darkroom for the school newspaper and yearbook, as well as the theatre. The theatre is where he learned to love shooting in the dark. After thirty-plus years in and around Boston and New York recording studios, as an engineer and service technician, Coleman retired and spends most of his time photographing shows and experimenting with film, Polaroid, and digital photo techniques.
In his live music photos, he tries to capture the raw energy of the moment by becoming emotionally involved in the music, paying full attention to the interplay between the artists on stage.
His photo experiments grow out of his Guided Chaos process, where randomness and entropy are part of the process. This current body of work represents a release of intention, where his creativity is centered on play for the sake of play, embracing mistakes and eschewing perfection, with no attachment to a specific outcome.What pairs well with art? Music. So together with Coleman, we’ve asked musical guest Jim Healey to pay a short set in Q Division’s Studio A.
