This horizontal color still photograph of purple kohlrabi and green cucumbers on a white background was made by Hudson Valley based photographer David Halliday. The minimalist inspired, contemporary food still life features the vegetables on a crisp white background where color and shape are made the central focus. The vegetables stand upright while some lay on their side, creating an ethereal and minimalist view of the common still life photograph. This color photograph is complimented with a handmade white washed wood frame and has non-glare glass and a sturdy wire for instant hanging.
About the work:
David Halliday's photographs are about beauty, pure and simple. His primary subjects are carefully composed still lifes, portraits and landscapes which he shoots in black and white film with only natural light. He is a purist behind the lens, rarely manipulating his negatives in any way and a master in the darkroom. His work has an ethereal quality that's translated not only through the subject, but also by the warm sepia tones he uses in his printing.
About the artist:
David Halliday first gained renown for his sepia-toned silver prints of elegant, meticulously-composed still lifes. His more recent color work maintains the same intimate and simple beauty but also creates a visceral connection for the viewer. Like a painter, he emphasizes volumes, balances, texture and areas of subtle shading.
Born in Glen Cove, New York in 1958, Halliday attended Syracuse University and pursued further studies under the tutelage of Arnold Newman. He has exhibited widely in solo and group exhibitions throughout the United States and Europe. In 2002, the Contemporary Arts Center in New Orleans exhibited a retrospective of his work and in 2012, he exhibited at the Ogden Museum of Southern Art, New Orleans. Halliday’s work is included in numerous public and private collections including the New Orleans Museum of Art; the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, and the New Britain Museum of Art.

Cherries (Contemporary Still Life Study of Red Cherries in Light Box)
By David Halliday
Located in Hudson, NY
11.25 x 11.25 inches unframed
Archival pigment print
edition of 12
Some of David Halliday's most engaging works are those from his Box Series in which he merges classical ideas about light and composition or still lifes with contemporary experiments of fresh color. In this series an empty cookie tin becomes a tiny studio for food objects. Halliday carefully styles his photographic subjects inside and, allowing only natural light to seep in through a circular window. The results feel less like still lifes and more like intimate portraits of human sustenance. In these photographs, the fleshy curves of a fig, the slick bodies of sardines, even the homeliest porcini mushrooms possess a degree of nobility, providing a refreshing contrast to the compulsive relationship we so often have with food, reminding us to slow down and savor with gratitude.
In this particular image, the bright red Bing cherries with their bright green stems are piled high into a silver goblet, gently brushed with the natural diffused light, echoing techniques associated with a Vermeer painting!
