Day to Night: After-Hours Exhibit Tour with Photographer Stephen Wilkes Saturday, May 27 • 5:30 PM Adults: $20 members; $25 non-members. To purchase tickets visit FenimoreArt.org or Eventbrite.com.
Cooperstown, New York —Join photographer Stephen Wilkes at Fenimore Art Museum for an exclusive in-person, after-hours tour of his new exhibition, Day to Night. The tour takes place Saturday, May 27 at 5:30 p.m. Adults: $20 members; $25 non-members. To purchase tickets visit FenimoreArt.org or Eventbrite.com.
About the exhibition... Day to Night, Stephen Wilkes’ most defining project, began in 2009. He and his team traveled to some of the world’s most well-known locations, including the Grand Canyon, Paris, Venice, several celebrated spots in New York City, and many others. Working from a fixed camera angle, he captured the fleeting moments of humanity and light as time passed. After approximately thirty hours of photographing and over 1,500 images taken, he selected the best moments of the day and night. Using time as a guide, all of these moments were seamlessly blended into a single photograph in post-production, visualizing places that are part of our collective memory. In each image, the landscape is masterfully captured with vibrant color and incredible detail.
Flat Iron 9/11, NYC, Day to Night™, 2010. Stephen Wilkes
About Stephen Wilkes
Since opening his studio in New York City in 1983, photographer Stephen Wilkes has built an unprecedented body of work and a reputation as one of America’s most iconic photographers, widely recognized for his fine art, editorial and commercial work.
His photographs are included in the collections of the George Eastman Museum, James A. Michener Art Museum, Houston Museum of Fine Arts, Dow Jones Collection, Carl & Marilynn Thoma Art Foundation, Jewish Museum of NY, Library of Congress, Snite Museum of Art, The Historic New Orleans Collection, Museum of the City of New York, 9/11 Memorial Museum and numerous private collections. His editorial work has appeared in, and on the covers of, leading publications such as the New York Times Magazine, Vanity Fair, Time, Fortune, National Geographic, Sports Illustrated, and many others.
Wilkes’ early career interpretations of Mainland China, California’s Highway One, and impressionistic “Burned Objects” set the tone for a series of career-defining projects that catapulted him to the top of the photographic landscape.
In 1998, a one-day assignment to the south side of Ellis Island led to a 5-year photographic study of the island’s long abandoned medical wards where immigrants were detained before they could enter America. Through his photographs and video, Wilkes helped secure $6 million toward the restoration of the south side of the island. A monograph based on the work, Ellis Island: Ghosts of Freedom, was published in 2006 and was named one of Time magazine’s 5 Best Photography Books of the Year. The work was also featured on NPR and CBS Sunday Morning.
In 2000, Epson America commissioned Wilkes to create a millennial portrait of the United States, “America In Detail,” a 52-day odyssey that was exhibited in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, and San Francisco.
Day to Night, Wilkes’ most defining project, began in 2009. These epic cityscapes and landscapes, portrayed from a fixed camera angle for up to 30 hours capture fleeting moments of humanity as light passes in front of his lens over the course of full day. Blending these images into a single photograph takes months to complete. Day to Night has been featured on CBS Sunday Morning as well as dozens of other prominent media outlets and, with a grant from the National Geographic Society, was recently extended to include America’s National Parks in celebration of their centennial anniversary and Bird Migration for the 2018 Year of the Bird. Day to Night: In the Field with Stephen Wilkes was exhibited at The National Geographic Museum in February, 2018.
Day to Night was published by TASCHEN as a monograph in 2019. The book is available as an XXL Edition and an Art Edition, the latter including one of two fine art prints from the Day to Night series.
