February Exhibiting Artist

This month we have two new artists exhibiting their work at the modern8 Gallery. Martin Mendelsberg, a visiting international artist, and Peder Singleton, a local letterpress artist.

Martin Mendelsberg's exhibit, "Holocaust Portfolio," displays a number of digital images using photographs and prayers recited by the Jews before their demise in the death camps. His inspiration came six years ago when he discovered a dusty old album of family photographs taken in Poland between 1919 and 1933. Click here to find out more information and view images.

Peder Singleton uses diverse typographic forms from Utah's urban landscapes. "Signs, walls and billboards--along with every other printable surface--beg for attention with their tattooed messages. During my final year of design school, I could not escape the beauty of these type elements. I photographed hundreds of examples in and around Salt Lake City. As I experimented with digital tools to manipulate the photos, I focused on translating full-color photography into one-, two-, and three-color prints."

In addition to these two artists, we still have work on display by Randall Smith, Paul Heath, and others. Please visit our artist page for more information.
