Goodheart to speak on “Adventures in Abstract Photography”
Published 4:32 pm Tuesday, October 10, 2017
As part of Tryon Arts & Crafts School’s Crafts and Conversation lecture series, the school welcomes Harry Goodheart, who will speak on “Adventures in Abstract Photography” on Thursday, Oct. 12 from 12 – 1 p.m. at the school, 373 Harmon Field Road. TACS developed the free series to provide an inside look into the art of craft for all within the community, and the talk promises to be fascinating!
Harry has done a number of presentations on contemplative photography, writing haiku from nature, and various presentations of his abstract and other photographs. This interactive program incorporates a wide variety of his abstract digital work and is designed to stimulate insight, inspiration, and creativity for artists of all kinds.
Harry was born in Denver, grew up in the West Indies and has lived in Tryon for the past 20 years. An attorney and mediator by profession, he is a writer of haiku, bookseller (Goodheart Book LLC at 431 N. Trade St. in Tryon) and photographer by passion, and has been playing with cameras and light for over 50 years.
Harry has a fascination with the abstract in nature and man-made forms, loves the mystery of human perception, and has always been enamored with light. He is an admirer of Carl Jung and studied painting with Ray Prohaska while at Washington & Lee University. He had several one-man shows of his abstract acrylic paintings in St. Thomas and has exhibited his photographs here in the Carolinas. He is a member of the Carolina Camera Club and a board member of Lanier Library.
Come and hear more from Harry. This lecture will be informative and interesting. Bring your lunch (beverages and snacks will be provided) and “join the conversation!”
