France Menk’s Summary

Classically trained artist: painter. Former photojournalist and political illustrator, now using photography to channel change in the mind (world) through the effect of the reality of the image. Art defines who we are and what we are capable of becoming. Current personal projects: a body of work documenting structures, inside and out, as records of our relationship to the spaces we form to move within: digital permutations of this work to illustrate a creative process; fine art photography exploring the power of color from deep within the eye of my lens: in private collections. In, as Klee called, 'andacht zum kleinen' (devotion to small things), one finds the largess of the universe.
