“BLACK & WHITE” National Juried Exhibition
OPENING RECEPTION: Saturday, November 18, 7-9PM “Colour is everything, black and white is more.” - Dominic Rouse The color Black is the first pigment used by human beings in prehistory, made from a mixture of charcoal and iron - it was the beginning, but it also symbolically represents the end. White is thought of as purity, but white is often tinted in some way, with subtle gradations. JUROR: James Bacchi James Bacchi Contemporary, Palm Springs, CA EXHIBITION: November 18, 2023 - December 16, 2023 |

Juror’s Statement:
Jurying this show brings me full circle in my Black & White World. Having grown up in TV Land peering inside the Ricardos’ grey on grey apartment and singing along with the black Supremes and the white Beatles on Ed Sullivan, I felt startled and uncomfortable when color was being introduced on the small screen. My Black & White World slowly disappeared and was evolving into a Disneyesque version of the real world. It was all very confusing. As an artist, photographing exclusively in black and white for the past 8 years, and a Juror having this opportunity to view so many outstanding submissions for this show, I’m confident there is a promising future for black and white.
My selection process for Black & White began with wanting to indulge myself with feeling wowed! Please show me something I do not want to stop looking at. Please allow me to wonder about and admire your inspiration, your technique, and your execution. Please make me feel, as a collector, that I want to include your work. Congratulations and very special thanks to the artists selected for Black & White.
