Obscura Gallery announces our third annual Winter Holiday exhibition, One-of-a-Kind III, a group show of unique photo-based artworks priced under $1,500, and found exclusively at our gallery. This year’s exhibit features ten artists including Michael Berman, Susan Burnstine, Gordon Coons, Lou Peralta, Sara Silks, Aline Smithson, Eddie Soloway, Lynn Stern, Robert Stivers, and Bryan Whitney.  In addition we are debuting our newly featured, local Santa Fe jewelry artist, Karin Worden who also creates one-of-a-kind jewelry pieces. The open house takes place on Saturday, November 28, from 1-4pm with many of the artists present.

In the 21^st Century we are most familiar with photography as a medium enabling multiple prints of the same image.  Yet many of the photographic processes that were used in the 19^th and 20^th Century yielded one-of-a-kind prints.  In some cases, the processes made a singular print for each exposure; in other cases, the treatment of prints during production led to singular images.   Included in this exhibition are gelatin silver prints with contemporary mixed media, photo collage, cyanotypes, hand-applied surface texture to gelatin silver prints, gold leaf and digital prints and other mediums that lend themselves to unique artworks including cedar smoked relief prints and one-of-a-kind jewelry.
