MMoCA: Rick Axsom Gallery Talk
October 9, 2020 @ 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm
James Cagle’s photographs cause us to focus on elements of our surroundings that might otherwise go unnoticed. His acute sensibilities, formal rigor, and embrace of the quotidian imbue his works with an extraordinary level of intimacy. Join us for a remote gallery talk with MMoCA curator emeritus Richard H. Axsom, who will discuss Cagle’s penetrating vision, and the associative and structural devices he employs in James Cagle: With an Open Eye.
