"Meet the Artist" with Dale Rio

On Thursday, February 5, we welcome Dale Rio to “Meet the Artist” night at CPW. Rio will present her current bodies of work and discuss how they fit into different approaches of image-making, specifically project-based versus shoot-now-and-make-sense-of-it-later. Rio will also discuss the importance of community in the arts and the ways in which she's been able to find and create community within the world of historic and alternative process photography. This event will be live-streamed on CPW’s YouTube page at 6pm.
Join us on select Thursday evenings at CPW, when we host illuminating talks with local and visiting artists. “Meet the Artist” allows the public to get to know new work, to hear about artistic processes, and to meet friends and other local artists. The evening takes place at CPW’s gallery at 25 Dederick Street in Kingston, NY. It is free and open to the public. Coffee, tea, and snacks are served. 
“Meet the Artist” is made possible by generous grants from the Arnold & Augusta Newman Foundation and the National Endowment for the Arts.
Dale Rio is a photographer whose work explores issues such as women’s rights and humanity’s relationship with the natural world. Utilizing film and historic photographic processes, she employs “straight” photography to document the world around her and creates conceptual work in response to that world. Her images have been shown extensively in the U.S., as well as in England, Germany, New Zealand, and Spain.
After receiving an MFA from Pratt Institute in 1996, Dale was awarded a Fulbright Travel Grant. Upon her return to the States, she embarked upon a varied photographic career that has included serving as a master darkroom printer, teaching, curating, and working as a forensic photographer. She has attended residencies at Penland, MASS MoCA, Farmington Valley Arts Center, and Ars BioArctica, Finland.
