Because of last week’s nor’easter, we had to postpone the opening of Marc Hauser’s Faces exhibition. These photographs are too meaningful to miss, so please join us for the rescheduled opening on Tuesday, March 10, from 5:00–7:00 PM ET.

Marc Hauser: Faces is an exhibition honoring the work of acclaimed portrait photographer Marc Hauser (1952–2018). Please join us on Tuesday, February 24, 5:00–7:00 PM for an evening of photography, and conversation as we celebrate a remarkable body of work spanning decades of portraiture.
Marc Hauser was widely recognized for his striking, psychologically direct portraits of cultural icons, artists, performers, and everyday people. Working with elegant restraint, he favored simple settings and carefully shaped light, allowing expression, gesture, and presence to define the image. The result is portraiture that feels both immediate and timeless—photographs that invite viewers into a quiet but powerful encounter with the subject.

Miles, Dizzy, Cannonball; Dolly, Waylon, George—sometimes just a first name says it all. Our next show features classic images of jazz legends from the Jack Bradley archive. In the 1950s and 60s, Jack traveled with his friend Louis Armstrong, photographing not only Louis but also many of the musicians who would become synonymous with jazz. Join us for the opening of Jazz Legends: The Jack Bradley Archive on Thursday, October 2, 5:00–7:00 PM ET. Michael Persico, who manages the archive, will be on hand to share Jack’s history with Louis and stories from their adventures together. We’re also excited to share news about another project in the works: photographer Fritz Hoffmann’s book The George Jones Bradley Barn Sessions. In 1994, country music icon George Jones recorded this landmark album at the Bradley Barn studio, joined by Keith Richards, Dolly Parton, Waylon Jennings, Tammy Wynette, and many more. Fritz was there, capturing the sessions in a remarkable collection of 180 never-before-seen photographs. His Kickstarter campaign is now in its final days—we hope you’ll take a look and support it.

Join us on Thursday, August 14, 5:00 to 7:00 PM ET, for an Artist talk with Fran Forman beginning at 6:00 PM
Fran Forman will share the inspiration and process behind Theatre of the Absurd, her haunting new series that examines the illusion of normalcy under authoritarian rule.
Blending original source material, photography, AI, and a personalized dataset, Fran layers symbolic elements—mimes, clowns, ominous skies, and musicians playing to no one—into richly textured visual narratives. “This is not mere historical reflection,” she says, “but a visual warning.”
We invite you to join us for what promises to be a thought-provoking conversation about the state of the world—and the evolving role of AI in art.
We look forward to seeing you, but for those who can’t make it to the gallery, Theatre of the Absurd is available to view online at the Workspace Gallery web page.

At the WORKSPACE GALLERY, please join us on Thursday, July 10, 5:00 – 7:00 PM for the opening of Theatre of the Absurd: Images by Fran Forman.
In Theatre of the Absurd, Fran has created these images using a combination of photography and AI. Inspired by the history of post–World War II Eastern Europe, the series explores the tension between individual freedom and authoritarian control.
Through symbolic figures, surreal settings, and quiet, ambiguous moments, the images reflect how fear, isolation, and distraction can shape a society. Clowns, mimes, and deserted performances suggest a world where appearances conceal deeper truths. Theatre of the Absurd invites viewers to reflect on the subtle forces that shape our perceptions—and the importance of staying vigilant, engaged, and connected.
I had the opportunity to print 60 images for By the Tide, a new exhibition by Edward Boches now on view at WELLFLEET PRESERVATION HALL.
For the past six years, Edward has been photographing Wellfleet’s shellfishing community—documenting the people, the place, and the process behind raising, growing, and harvesting oysters and clams. The result is a powerful and deeply respectful portrait of a working community that connects us to the tides and traditions of Cape Cod.
The Opening Reception & Community Celebration will be Wednesday, July 16, 5:00 – 7:30 PM, for this tribute to the people who make a living from the sea—and help sustain a vital part of Wellfleet’s identity.
I look forward to seeing you at the openings—and sharing these remarkable exhibitions with you.

We added a gallery of our new show, Good Trouble: To the Streets. This show is a powerful photographic exhibition documenting the visual legacy of protest in today’s America as captured by photographer Kevin McKeon.
With raw urgency and striking intimacy, these images bear witness to the collective resistance of our time—Black Lives Matter protests, Women’s March, LGBTQ+ pride movements, and the rising surge of “Hands Off” demonstrations. In every frame, we see people rising—fighting injustice, demanding dignity, and, as the late John Lewis urged, making Good Trouble.
