Holly Gordon

Boating Buddy, Centerport, LI : contemporary photography

2016

A wonderful contemporary artwork by a noted Long Island photographer Holly Gordon. For more than two decades Gordon has pushed through the traditional boundaries of photography. She is one of the pioneers of “photo-liminalism,” a process of achieving painterly quality in photography by overlapping, layering, and manipulating. As painters paint with a brush, Gordon’s brush is the lens of the camera and her computer. The digital world that Gordon works with provides endless opportunities. The evolution of images in her practice is limitless and bountiful.  Another highlight of Gordon’s recent career is her collaboration with Ward Hooper, a noted illustrator and painter from Long Island. The result of this collaboration is a book called “Parallel Perspectives : The Brush/ Lens Collaboration,” with a forward by Peter Pitzele, Ph.D., a teacher and author, and a preface by Denise A. Bibro, Director of Denise Bibro Fine Art, NYC. This collaboration continues a long tradition of Long Island coupled artists creating and experiencing art using Long Island as an incubator for creativity. One particular Long Island partnership that inspired Holly and Ward was of renowned twentieth century artist, Arthur Dove, and his wife, painter Hellen Torr. Other couples of artists connected to Long Island such as Lee Krasner and Jackson Pollock and Elaine and Willem de Kooning were also inspirational for the two. These pairings were a testament of the richness of place and history of Long Island that should always be remembered and celebrated. Holly Gordon’s work has been exhibited widely in such institutions as Denise Bibro Fine Art, NYC, American Museum of Natural History, NYC, New York Hall of Science, NYC, The Heckscher Museum of Art, NY, Southampton Arts Center, NY, The Long Island Museum, NY, Islip Art Museum, NY, to name a few. Her photographs are a part of various collections including Molloy University, Rockville Centre, NY, NYU Langone Health, NYC, and Stony Brook...
