About the Item

"I like to go back to a place. Seasons change. Light, which is theater, changes. Nature is tumultuous, and our contact with it makes life happen.” David H. Gibson is a lifelong photographer whose first contact with the medium was in his father's darkroom before he could read. Gibson received a B.A. from Centenary College in Shreveport, Louisiana, and an M.A. at Trinity University in San Antonio, Texas. His early work in theater lighting enhanced his photographic education which is largely self-directed. Valley House Gallery has shown his photographs since 1990, just after he had his first solo exhibition at the Eastman Kodak Company in Rochester, New York. Since 1990, Gibson’s work has been featured in Aperture, Hasselblad Forum, Photo Technik International, PHOTOgraphic, and View Camera, and has been the subject of two books. His work took the grand prize at the International Art Competition at Yosemite Museum Gallery in California and been acquired by many museums, including the Amon Carter Museum in Fort Worth, the Ballinglen Foundation in Ireland, the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, and the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Gibson’s work has been exhibited at the AIPAD Photography Show (Wm. Floyd Gallery, New York), the Amarillo Museum of Art (Texas), the Amon Carter Museum (Fort Worth), the Art in Embassies Program (Dublin, Ireland and Lima, Peru), la Biennale Photographique: Terre Ciel Mer (Montpellier, France), the High Museum of Art (Atlanta), the Houston Museum of Natural Science, The McKinney Avenue Contemporary (Dallas), The Menil Collection (Houston), Photo-Eye Gallery (Santa Fe), the Special Photographers Company (London), and the Tyler Museum of Art (Texas). This photograph appears on the cover of the book "Canyonland Vision: The Colorado Plateau of Southeast Utah" published in an edition of 800 in 2002 by Waterous & Co. The price of the photograph includes an 8 ply rag mat measuring 14 x 24 inches. This photograph is printed in an edition of 45.
