Wells Fargo Advisors, Rhinebeck and RiverWinds Gallery open their new show featuring a group of advanced photographers who meet once a month at the Photography Critique Seminar at the Barrett Art Center in Poughkeepsie. Led by Dan McCormack and Eric Lindbloom, the seminar has been meeting, at various locations, for almost 30 years. The current participants whose work will be featured in the show are: Bill Bogle, Jr, Angelo Dounoucos, Jerry Freedner, Mary Ann Glass, Eric Lindbloom, Dan McCormack, Michael Sibilia and Ian Wickstead.

Dan McCormack began the advanced seminar in Woodstock in late 1977. A few years later Eric Lindbloom joined as co-leader, and after a few changes in location, the seminar returned to Poughkeepsie in the early 1990s, to the Barrett Art Center.

“We have a serious group of photographers participating in our monthly sessions,” says Dan McCormack. “The goal of the seminar is, through thoughtful and extended feedback, to help a mature photographer advance in her or his self-chosen project(s) in progress. “
The seminar meets each month and each photographer brings a body of recent work for the critique. “Discussions are lively but positive, “ says Eric Lindbloom. “Photography can be a solitary occupation. I think we as photographers, in order to grow, need to show our work to colleagues and get comments and feedback. It can be difficult to assess your own work – you are too close to it sometimes – and others can offer insight on what you have accomplished and what the next step might be.”
