Ron Rosenstock: The World Through My Eyes

Photographer Ron Rosenstock brings us the natural world through his camera lens.  He travels all over the globe to meet the earth on its own terms and has just returned from the deserts of Morocco with a collection of his newest awe-inspiring vistas.  Will his striking photos of mother earth be the sole inheritance we bequeath the next generations of her inhabitants?  Ron wants his incredible discoveries to stir our collective human conscience to action before it comes to that.  Rather than speaking on her behalf – as has become commonplace – he allows nature to speak directly to us in her own inimitable voice.  Come welcome Ron Rosenstock to our show and let’s listen to what she has to say!

The Making of Black & White Photographs: A Talk with Ron Rosenstock

  • Photographic Society of Rhode Island (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

The creation of black and white images is not as easy as you might think.  In fact, it is a completely different approach than color because of the play and effect of shadows.  Traditionally, black and white photography was always seen as a more artistic endeavor, but it can be an expression of place, of time and of feeling.  Not every image can be captured well as a black and white image, so learning how to recognize the subject for a black and white image is vital. 

This talk will help to illuminate the shadows and misconceptions about black and white photography with stunning, stark and even ethereal images by Ron Rosenstock from his more than 50 years behind the lens. 

This talk is October 23rd at 7:00 PM at PSRI (The Photographic Society of Rhode Island) in Warwick, RI.

Light Celebrating Itself: Exhibition of the Recent Work of Ron Rosenstock at the Providence Art Club

Light Celebrating Itself: Exhibition of the Recent Work of Ron Rosenstock at the Providence Art Club

Over the past year, Ron Rosenstock has been traveling more than ever and experiencing new places such as Greenland and Scotland as well as old places in new ways such as Tuscany and Ireland.  He will be exhibiting his latest images from his travels at the Providence Art Club from April 22nd through May 11th with an opening reception from 12 to 3 on April 22nd. 

These latest images entitled "Light Celebrating Itself" really demonstrate Ron's philosophy that a meaningful photograph is not a photo of something but is something in itself.  A photograph that is only subject matter is seen and quickly reduced to a memory of the chosen subject.  A meaningful photograph is so much more. As with a meditative experience, there is no end to its possible depth. Not only is such a photograph an interpretation of the light that falls on the original subject matter, it is also a magical combination of that quality of light and a delicate balance achieved by light and dark areas in the image.  Perhaps there exists an ancient formula for the proportions of light and dark areas within a print required to evoke in the viewer a profound depth of meaning.  As with other forms of art through the ages, photography can connect us with this deeper meaning. Each of us seeks a direction in life without knowing the final destination. As artists and seekers we are drawn by a creative force to the Light within and so begin our life’s journey.
