The Peralta Community College District – and BCC in particular – is contributing to Bay Area culture with an exhibit at the Saint Mary’s College Museum of Art featuring BCC faculty member Joe Doyle and former instructor Diane Rosenblum, entitled New Formalism in Painting and Photography.
The duo makes art collectively as “R&D” and in this show they present a collaborative work that extends the boundaries of painting and photography, merging them through digital manipulations. The exhibition includes seven digital paintings along with a large-scale installation photograph that demonstrates Doyle’s work as an “illusionist painter” along with Rosenblum’s expertise in composite photography.
The exhibit of R&D’s digital paintings continues through December 8th (so check it out!) and there will be an opportunity to meet the artists on Thursday, November 21, 2019, when Rosenblum and Doyle discuss their artistry and collaboration.
Joe Doyle is full-time faculty, teaching advanced digital printing at BCC. Dian Rosenblum formally taught advanced photography at BCC as an Adjunct Instructor.
