Each ImageMaker in this exhibition was asked to provide a “frame of mind” statement to accompany their selected image and which gives some insight into their creative process.  The images in this exhibition were juried and selected by Ann Jastrab, Executive Director, Center for Photographic Art, Carmel, California and Brian Taylor, artist, photographer, historian and Professor Emeritus, San Jose State University.  #6 2358 MRKT (2358 Market St): This Friday we will be having the 'Life 101' closing reception 5-10pm.
