David H. Gibson’s Luminous Landscapes
PHOTO-EYE GALLERY

This winter, the Amon Carter Museum of American Art will host an exhibition of photographs by represented artist David H. Gibson, check-in to see a preview!

David H. Gibson’s introduction to the photographic process occurred when he was a child, his father, an experienced printer for a commercial photographer had set up a temporary dark room in their kitchen. When Gibson saw a print develop for the first time, it was a magical experience. It is not surprising to learn that when he saw Ansel Adams’ photographs in the 1965 exhibition catalog for The Family of Man, he was inspired to “learn how to make an expressive print.”

Gibson’s luminous landscapes demonstrate a remarkable sensitivity to light and mood. His images invite the viewer to share a reverence for place and light, just last he prints themselves reflect his devotion to the art of printmaking.

Years of developing and refining his photographic technique have afforded David Gibson much recognition, especially for his panoramic landscapes of Texas and the Four Corners region. Gibson has also photographed extensively in Ireland, a project for which he received a grant from the Ballinglen Arts Foundation in 1995. He has exhibited widely in both group and solo exhibitions, and his work is part of several permanent public and corporate collections such as the Amon Carter Museum and the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston.
