NUMEN LUMEN REDUX photographs by Bill Pielsticker

WHEN: Monday, January 4 through Friday, February 12 2010

WHERE: Steenbock Gallery, 1922 University Avenue, Madison WI

OPENING RECEPTION: Friday, January 8th 4:00pm - 7:00pm  

Photographer Bill Pielsticker opens the Steenbock Gallery's 2010 exhibition season with images from Wisconsin's frozen lakes that are magical in their pattern and galactic in their scope.  Shooting both 35mm film and digital images, Pielsticker uses a macro lens, a handheld mirror and sunlight to create and capture new universes below the ice of frozen lakes.  Though conditions to make this work exist only every second or third year, Pielsticker has created a gorgeous, full and thought-provoking body of work that should not be missed.  

This exhibit will redefine your idea of what work can be encompassed by "nature photography", and will open your eyes to a world beneath your very feet.  

Bundle up for a year of great exhibits, and we can't wait to see you here!
