Tom Paiva Show at Topanga Canyon Gallery

LA night photographer Tom Paiva will be included in the show The Emerging Landscape at the Topanga Canyon Gallery (Topanga, CA) along with seven other photographers, which runs from July 1st through July 27th.

Eight photographers interpret the urban landscape. This diverse group of photographers utilize a variety of photographic mediums to delve into the landscape of our environment. Images in both b/w and color, digital and traditional techniques, abstract and realistic will explore from the industrial heart of our world to the wasteland deserts we occupy sparingly.

The reception for the artists is July 12th from 4-8pm.

Stephen DiRado

Worchester, MA photographer, Stephen DiRado, is the Photography Program Director/Studio Lecturer in Photography in the Clark University Visual & Performing Arts Department. I originally came across his work through his amazing portraits of sunbathers at Bell Pond and 80's-cool Mall Series. It was only later than I learned he also did night photography, which can be found in his Environments series.
