Ron Agam: In Full Bloom
Noted for his portrait photography, Agam achieved critical acclaim in the 1990s for his exhibitions and publications which took as their theme the Ultra-Orthodox community in Jerusalem. Now, motivated by a deep concern for the environment, he has created a group of monumentally scaled, six-by-six-foot images of solitary flowers set against monochromatic backgrounds. These flower portraits, at once intimate and imposing, point to the grandeur of nature as reflected in some of its most fragile creations. The exhibition makes a poignant statement that is particularly relevant to this time of ecological crisis.
Agam’s work has received great attention during the past year. He was awarded the Legion of Honor in the summer of 2008.
