Chelsea’s Agora Gallery will feature an Miami artist, Michael Katz, in Altered States of Reality: an Exhibition of Analog and Digital Fine Art Photography. The exhibition is scheduled to run from April 19, 2011 through May 10, 2011 (opening reception: Thursday, April 21, 2011).

About the Artist
Stirringly lyrical in composition, photographer Michael Katz sensitively seeks to tease an inspirational truth from the monotony of everyday life. Katz’s photographs are like a delicate microscope through which we refreshingly and intimately see what often passes us by. Details, pulsating with an invigorating poetry, enliven Katz’s sensual, arresting colors. Ephemeral impressions are memorialized through Katz’s perceptive and precise compositions. Katz’s photographs don’t haunt us, however; instead, they sweetly arouse in us a sense of appreciation for everyday pleasures. Elegantly evocative of moments passed too soon, Katz’s photographs are subtle entreaties to enjoy the simple joys of life. “I just want people to be able to stop and stare at my images and feel the photo in their hearts and mind and walk away with a peaceful feeling and how it relates to themselves,” Katz states, simply but movingly.

Raised in Brooklyn, New York, Katz lives and works in Miami, Florida.

Exhibition Dates: April 19, 2011 - May 10, 2011
Reception: Thursday, April 21, 2011, 6:00 - 8:00 p.m.

About the Exhibition:
Altered States of Reality: an Exhibition of Analog and Digital Fine Art Photography provides a glimpse of the world as captured through the lens of a camera, technology, and through the artists own inner vision. The gifted artist’s participating in Altered States of Reality offer us a perception of the world, as seen, through a complex, enigmatic fusion of emotions and technical mastery. The old boundaries have come tumbling down and the new reality has been altered and is forever changing. This exciting exhibition allows us to challenge our ideas, parables and perceptions that constitute our own reality.

Featured Artists:
Altered States of Reality: an Exhibition of Analog and Digital Fine Art Photography - Jeanne Anderton, Luis Beltrán, Carlo Di Giacomo, Jose A. Gallego, Valdemaro Grifoni, Robyn Hills, Kelly Hunt, Michael Katz, Debra Kayata, David LaBella, Guy Marino, Lennette Newell, Denis Palbiani, Yvonne Ribes Zankl, Carolyn Rogers, Shifra, Caryn Singer, Rainer Maria Stark, Martin Zalba Ibáñez
