Abstract Reality: Greta Jaklitsch Photographs
Opening Reception: Sept 24, 2-4pm
Unaltered, unfiltered, a glimpse of the world around us, Greta Jaklitsch photographs with 35mm film. Jaklitsch was one of the first artists shown at the Museum and this exhibition is a 20th Anniversary event.
Many of her most striking images are captured in parks, on walks, and observing things that are here in Queens. This exhibition brings together images that explore pattern or playfully abstract composition.
