Sally Gall

Composition #2

2015

Sally Gall has spent her career exploring the intricacies of the natural world in delicate black-and-white photos of dew on spider webs, reflections on water, formal gardens, insects, caverns, and the subterranean world. Using a square-format Diana or Hasselblad camera, she creates abstractions of familiar subjects, showing nature at once as immense and intimate, nurturing and overwhelming, often shooting at dawn, dusk and other transitional moments. Gall obtained a BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design. She has exhibited in numerous group and solo shows and has been the recipient of many fellowships and grants. Her work may be found in The Whitney Museum of American Art, The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, The Cleveland Museum of Art, The High Museum in Atlanta, The Museum of Fine Arts in Houston, Biblioteque Nationale in Paris, The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and numerous other museums and private collections.
