Arthur Drooker and August Muth: A Moment to Wonder
opening reception: Saturday, August 24, 4-6 pm
on view: August 24–September 21, 2024

Pie Projects is pleased to announce the opening of Arthur Drooker and August Muth: A Moment to Wonder, on Saturday, August 24, 2024 with an opening reception for the artists from 4 to 6 pm. The exhibition will be on view until September 21, 2024.

Photographer Arthur Drooker with his series Twilight and holographic master August Muth with a new body of work explore the liminal space where art and nature unite with science and technology to capture the beauty of light and color.

Arthur Drooker is an award-winning photographer and television director. His work has been exhibited widely, including shows at the Virginia Center for Architecture and the Art Museum of the Americas in Washington, DC.

Signed copies of his book documenting the Twilight series will be available for purchase during the exhibition.

August Muth is a pioneer in the exploration of light and color through holography. As a former student of astronomy and physics, he looks at his holograms as making perceptible light-space-time phenomena. He lives in Santa Fe and works in a network of connected studios filled with old and new technology needed to create his boundary-pushing holograms, from crafted light-sensitive emulsions to high-end lasers.

Muth’s color field abstractions consist of geometric forms stretching beyond the bounds of the archival glass surface moving in space with the viewer. Viewers respond to the refracted light depending on their position in relation to the hologram. The hologram responds to the ambient and projected light in the exhibition space, creating a dynamic and ever-changing experience.
