Baldwin photos in Truro show
Banner Daily Update posted Sat. April 28
TRURO — Painter and photographer Carol Baldwin is having an opening for a show of her photographs at the Truro Library, 5 Library Lane in North Truro from 2 to 4 p.m. Sunday, April 29. The show will remain on display through May and presents prints of slide photography done by Baldwin over a period of 30 years.
The photographs are all color and printed in 24 by 36 inch format. The images represent scenes as close-by as a beautiful sunset shot in Truro with the Provincetown shoreline as a backdrop and as far afield as the streets of Brooklyn or locations in New Jersey.
Over the years, Baldwin shot industrial sites in and around New York, captured street life like a Mardi Gras parade in Brooklyn and zeroed in on city shop windows. On the Cape, her eye turned to landscapes, flowers, birds, snow and trees.
She describes her work as having strongly abstract elements that lend a sense of drama and help create a unique look at a place or event whether it is unusual or quite ordinary.
Baldwin studied art at Connecticut College, Sacramento College and the Corcoran Museum School as well as Pratt Graphics in New York. She taught art at Newark State College in New Jersey and at Castle Hill in Truro. She also contributes an art column to a Cape Cod newspaper.
