Mark Jenkins at Renner Gallery + Lambda Legal event

[drscott]

Our friend John is getting his gallery started with a bang, opening an exhibit of Mark Jenkins photography at 2344 Market Street (between Castro and Noe.) The show actually starts August 8th (Wednesday) with the opening at 5 PM, continuing to August 26th, open Tue-Sun 11 AM to 5:30 PM.

Lambda Legal is having a special event there:

Lambda Legal and Renner Gallery are pleased to invite you to a
wine reception featuring the work of local artist Mark Jenkins
in an exhibition of photographic works fusing reality and
illusion into classical figurative images of beauty. Please come
out and celebrate with Lambda Legal and see the work of this
talented emerging San Francisco photographer. 30% of all sales
that evening benefits Lambda Legal.

About the show:

Renner Gallery is pleased to present MAGIC REALITY.

Jenkins combines a traditional photographic approach with
digital technique to achieve a masterful image of composition
and montage. While his coloration evokes the warmth of
hand-pulled platinum prints, Jenkins' lighting style and
printing technique produces a distinctive "glow" to his works,
enhancing a wide range of images of figurative, botanical and
floral, architectural, and portrait subjects.

Jenkins graduated from the Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia
studying photography, design and painting. He has had works
published in the book "Self-Exposure" (Universe/Rizzoli 2005
NYC), and "Blue Muse" (Studio Magazines 2005 Sydney). He draws
thematic inspiration from a variety of sources, including
extensive travel through Italy.

This is the first solo exhibition of this emerging San Francisco
artist.

Mark Jenkins is represented exclusively by Renner Gallery.

A few lifetimes ago, I knew a fellow named John Renner who moved to somewhere in the Bay area to work for a little start-up called Adobe. I lost touch with him ages ago. I wonder if this could be the same John Renner? otterpop58 will know the answer . . .

One and the same. He'll be thrilled to reune with you. Or will he? :-)

My husband excessor went to CMU with him, and they have been friends for 25+ years a long time.
