Maumelle photographer Ben Krain will have an exhibition of his work at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock starting next week on April 4 and continuing through May 6.
Krain’s exhibit is titled “Encounters” and will be on display in the Focus Gallery in the Windgate Center of Art and Design.
The gallery is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, and 2-5 p.m. Sunday. The exhibit is free and open to the public.
Technically and impressively skilled, Krain currently works as the university’s photographer and has been a working photojournalist, he said, for more than 20 years.
“The more challenging photographs are those of everyday life,” Krain said describing the exhibit. The simple exploration of nothing. The moments in-between the moments. I find these unplanned encounters the most interesting. The content is not about the news. It is about the human spirit. These are the photographs in this exhibit. They can be taken by anyone. There is no special access or credential required other than just being present. (Although a few may have needed a plane ticket to get there or an event ticket to get in), they are still accessible to anyone with a camera and desire to explore.”
