About the Item
Gorgeous archival digital photograph, limited edition giclee by Graham Nash (American, b. 1942) of an abstracted photogpah of his mother Mary Nash. #12/25. Titled, signed and dated '89. Stamp and signed on verso. Condition: Excellent. Unframed. Image size: 22"50"H x 15.25"W. Size including border: 24.33"H x 22.50"W.
The original photo is in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Museum. Graham said about this photo, "This is a photo I took of my mother Mary when I was 11, in 1953. She was 33. It was the first image I took where I realized that it's possible that I see differently than most people. Normally my mother would be making the bed, or cooking breakfast — mother stuff. I'd never seen my mother in this contemplative mood. I'd never seen her either looking into her future or wondering if her life had been what she wanted or thinking about her past. I don't know. I only know that that's an incredible moment in my mother's existence."
While best known as a founding member of the rock band Crosby, Stills, Nash, and (sometimes) Young, Nash also developed a parallel career as a photographer, collector, and pioneer of digital imaging. Nash's photographs include revealing portraits of family and friends, images of life on the road, still lifes and landscapes, street photographs, bad credit people, and a unique series of self-portraits which often shows him reflected in windows and mirrors. His photography establishes Nash as a masterful visual artist with a keen eye for moments and scenes not immediately available to the common eye.
In 2006, fifty years of Graham Nash's photographic images were shown in his first solo museum exhibition, Eye to Eye: Photographs by Graham Nash, at San Diego's Museum of Photographic Arts. MoPA Director Arthur Ollman commented, "Nash is the real thing…his vision is quite his own…if you look at his songwriting over the years, a lot of his imagery is visual. I can't help but think it's very influenced by his photographic way of seeing things." The show, featuring images including ones of family, famous friends, unknown subjects and abstract compositions, expanded on Nash's 2004 book of the same name, a limited edition volume published by Steidl.
Nash has said that what he aims to capture through his lens is, "everyday, ordinary surrealism - the decisive moment." There is indeed a hyper-present, unvarnished integrity to his images - as with the feelings expressed in his songs - that reflects that stated goal with striking clarity. Garrett White, editor of the book version of Eye To Eye, perhaps put it best when, in his preface, he called the artist, "a man who is fundamentally tuned in to the world…Nash has been blessed with a powerful, elemental curiosity and love of life, a trait that has fared him very well." As it has, in turn, well served countless fans of Graham Nash's music and art.

- Bud of the BudBy Reka NyariLocated in New York, NY“Ink Stories”, which was introduced at Nyari’s very first solo gallery exhibit, consists of large-scale nude photographs that explore the concept of self-identity and female empowerment. The series joins six women together, each who have faced adversity, to demonstrate the creation of a strengthened self-image through tattoos. By highlighting the intricate woven threads of ink on each woman’s skin, Nyari proposes the idea that self-empowerment and reconciliation with one’s traumas can be linked to the act of greeting one’s “own skin” or inventing their own story. Nyari has now elevated these intimate photographs in her new Punctured Ink series through the process of puncturing botanical-like references into the surface of each image (thus making each one of a kind). Her inspiration to physically puncture the previously pristine photographic prints stemmed from a childhood memory that occurred while she was living in Finland: “I remembered my parents had this big pad of paper next to the home phone...Category
