‘BRETT WESTON: OUT OF THE SHADOW’ ON VIEW AT PHILLIPS COLLECTION

AVV 6-12 #742607

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Phillips Collection presents “Brett Weston: Out of the Shadow,” on view through September 7.

In the first major exhibition in 30 years exclusively dedicated to the artist’s prolific body of work, “Brett Weston: Out of the Shadow” focuses attention on Weston’s abstract black and white photographs of landscapes, shapes and textures, and architectural elements.

The exhibition features more than 75 photographs from the 1920s through the 1980s. Although Weston was considered a key player in the photography world during his lifetime, his achievements have been overshadowed by those of his renowned father, Edward Weston.

A pioneer in his field, Brett captured the intricacies and rhythms of form, light and shadow while avoiding photographic techniques such as contrived lighting, staging or other manipulation.

The Phillips Collection is at 1600 21st Street, NW. For information, 202-387-2151 or www.phillipscollection.org.
