Press Release

Opening June 5th and running through June 30th, The Drawing Room is pleased to present "Adam Bartos | Louse Point", an exhibition of large format photographs of the beach preserve in the Springs hamlet of East Hampton as well as complex architectural views of an 18th century villa in Rajasthan.

 

Often drawn to abandoned architectural or natural environments, Adam Bartos turns his lens on evidence of human industry that defines and ignites a sense of place. A long time resident of the East End and New York City, Bartos has documented discreet aspects of Long Island life since the 1970s when he began to roam these environs with his camera and tripod. Attracted over the years by the visual clutter of yard sales, the campsite rituals at Hither Hills in Montauk, street views in various parts of Long Island, and stock cars at the Bridgehampton racetrack, Bartos knows Long Island and has created memorable bodies of work from each of these subjects.
