ECHS Students Featured in Photography Exhibit

On Oct. 11-23, photos from Early College High School students who are members of the Photography Club will have their photos on display in a gallery on the campus of Brookhaven College. The exhibit, Photo Essays: Experiments in Visual Literacy, grew out of an assignment in Professor Nancy Barlow’s HIST/ENG 1301 Learning Community class, in which students were to take a picture, describe and explain it, exploring meanings and connections the photo evoked. Professor Daniel Rodrigue gave a guest lecture on the composition of photographs.  Understanding  the similarities in written and visual composition led to Photo Essays.

There will be an informal gallery talk by a handful of the participating students On Oct. 11 at 12:30 p.m. and the exhibit will run through Tues., Oct. 23. The Basement Gallery’s exhibitions are free and open to the public.
