In celebration of our grand move to gallery A1  from A7 in Bergamot Station, Peter Fetterman Gallery is pleased to announce two exhibitions, a selection of favorite images by photographer Elliott Erwitt in The World of Elliott Erwitt, and a series of winter images by up and coming photographer Jeffrey Conley in "Winter".

A member of the prestigious Magnum agency since 1954, Elliott Erwitt has photographed all over the world.  With a keen eye, he sees beyond the tourist clichés and chronicles the charm of city life and relationships whether they be between man and woman, or man and dog.  His glimpse of California in Malibu Kiss for example, captures an intimate yet delightful moment between two lovers while watching the sun set into the Pacific horizon.  His New York (2000) snapshot of a man sitting with his bulldog illustrates Erwitt's witty and creative style.

"Winter" is a series of snow covered landscape images by artist Jeffrey Conley.  These photographs of tranquility and beauty share with us what he has seen and experienced in his journey through nature.  In conjunction with the exhibition, we are coming out with his book 'Winter' published by Nazraeli Press.  First edition, signed copies are available from the gallery.
