FATHOM is excited to announce a pop-up exhibition at the legendary
MAURO’s Cafe at Fred SEGAL ON MELROSE. On view are selections from
Hugh KRETSCHMER’s _Oddities and Entities Photography
Exhibition._HUGH KRETSCHMER (AMERICAN B. 1960): is an internationally
recognized, award wining photographer whose body of work includes
editorial, commercial and fine art photography.
_ODDITIES AND ENTITIES_ is a career spanning collection of photography
showcasing Hugh’s approach to illuminating the human condition with
a bright light of surreal irony. His creative process starts somewhere
deep inside, pulling images from his childhood, combining those
dreamlike memories with his study of 19th and 20th century masters,
and then adding a final pinch of pop culture. A potent recipe to be
sure.
Hugh’s unique imagery is composed for the most part in-camera, with
minimal use of Photoshop. Kretschmer’s old school technical mastery
is indeed a dying art and it is hard to think of more than a handful
of photographers working today who could replicate his technique, let
alone his unique vision.
FRED SEGAL MAURO CAFE: is the renowned cafe and a true crossroads --
intersecting LA’s design and entertainment worlds. Mauro’s
excellent Italian cuisine and fine wine list are the perfect pairing
to the cafe’s rotating exhibitions from vintage and contemporary
master photographers.
