Synopsis

Using ground-breaking advances in printing technology and a bold approach to graphic design, the RIT Cary Graphic Arts Press presents Colleagues, a visually stunning collection of portraits by John Retallack with a companion poem, "Enter the Eyes" by Anne C. Coon. The interplay of images and words, introduced by a conversation between Retallack and Coon, challenges the viewer's understanding of the art, aesthetics, and dynamics of portraiture. Retallack's photographs reveal his subjects at rest, at play, and in unguarded moments, while Coon's poem reflects metaphorically on the transformation that takes place when those accustomed to lecturing and performing are caught by the camera's lens.
