Photo Noir - Monongalia Arts Center (Due June 27)
Photo Noir - Monongalia Arts Center
Deadline: June 27th, 2025
Photographs have the unique ability to encapsulate the details of a single moment and instantly transport the viewer to a different place and time, often evoking memories along with feelings of nostalgia and empathy.
With evidence of human presence, but without a focus on the figure, the black and white photographs in this exhibit portray scenes from cities and countrysides, workplaces and homes, landscapes and still lifes… offering glimpses of moments now passed.
Curated to complement the Monongalia Arts Center’s largest event of the year, the PHOTO NOIR exhibit will be featured during our annual fundraiser on August 23rd. The “Bootlegger Ball” fundraiser theme embraces the glitz and glamour of the roaring twenties, including the art and music, while acknowledging the struggles faced by so many during the Great Depression. Monongalia Arts Center is in Morgantown, WV.
