Photography by Brian Orner.Photography and mixed media works by rrrbrrrtfrrrrnk.Poetry reading by Harlow Crandall. Live music by Eric Witkowski and Matt Sauer.Brian Orner’s large scale photographs invite the viewer to see the eloquent in the mundane.Texture in the cracks and worn away surfaces. Forged figures and landscapes in stone and rust. Beauty in what is broken.rrrbrrrtfrrrrnk confronts his audience with a melange of materials in both photographic still life and assemblage form. Reassembling fragments into tableaus of inquiry. Inviting the viewers to get close and become voyeurs. To challenge them to find their own concept of “ what is”.“Is it true, or is it false, that beauty is everywhere, always, in any and all conditions—there to be seen and experienced, and possibly even captured—if only we have the eye and the attention to see it? …I am increasingly convinced of the truth of it.”- Brian Orner
