Hallet Oak Gallery Spotlight on the Arts featuring Steven Pituch, art photographer
2018-07-14 14:00 - 16:00
Free reception
2 PM to 4 PM
Steven Pituch – Art Photographer
Steve Pituch has been serious about his photography for over 50 years. Specializing in both digital and film, Pituch enjoys the noir quality of black and white film, using cameras and lenses that are often more than 30 years old. Pituch’s favorite film format is 4” by 5” sheet film, which requires a traditional view camera complete with bellows, focusing cloth, and viewing ground glass. He prefers to print his own work, and uses the finest archival materials available. A recently retired engineer, he looks forward to making photographic portraits of people and animals in a variety of environments. “If I can cause an emotional impact in someone viewing one of my photographs, which may very well mimic the feelings that I had when I pressed the shutter, then my efforts in creating that image will have been worthwhile.”

She continued her education in the United States, and recently earned her DMA under Professor Adam Holzman at the University of Texas at Austin. Paulina will perform music from the Queen Victoria era, with selections from composers such as Fernando Carulli (1770-1841); Dionisio Aguado (1784-1849); Francisco Tarrega (1852-1909); Mauro Giuliani (1781-1829); Johann Kaspar Mertz (1800-1856); Fernando Sor (1778-1839); and Giulio Regondi (1823-1872), as well as Arthur Sullivan (1842-1900) of the hugely popular theatrical partnership of Gilbert and Sullivan. She will also play some of her original arrangements of popular music, and pieces composed by her former professor Miroslav Loncar.
