FENIMORE PRESENTS ‘RURAL ICONS’

AVV 3-24 #733149

COOPERSTOWN, N.Y. — The Fenimore Art Museum presents “Rural Icons: Photographs by Richard Walker,” on view through May 11.

This exhibition features nearly 100 compelling portraits, still-lifes and landscapes of rural upstate New York by local photographer Richard Walker. The exhibition presents the region’s physical beauty, enhanced by its architecture, people and material culture in the context of a declining agricultural landscape and its architectural legacy.

Walker is a commercial photographer of objects, antiques, sculpture, paintings, architecture and interiors, and people with their art and collections. He is especially known for his still life compositions of products, antiques and collectibles, sports memorabilia, and historical ephemera.

The Fenimore Art Museum is at 5798 State Highway 80, Lake Road. For information, www.fenimoreartmuseum.org or 888-547-1450.
