Featured exhibition: Colourful Black and White

Published the 11th of July 2025

 

This months' featured exhibition is titled  'Colourful Black and White' by Yvette Depaepe


Yes, pure BLACK AND WHITE PHOTOGRAPHY can indeed have a "colourful" effect, even though it may not directly include colour in the traditional sense. In black and white photography, the contrast, composition, and texture can create a sense of vibrancy and dynamism that evokes the emotional intensity and richness typically associated with colour.
Essentially, BLACK AND WHITE PHOTOGRAPHY uses its own set of visual tools (contrast, texture, light, and composition) to create the emotional and visual impact that colour can achieve. 


We invite you to explore this fine exhibition. While it's not literal colour, it's still a 'colourful" experience because of its ability to evoke feelings, depth and intensity.
This exhibition which will be exposed on our opening page  / Gallery during the whole month of July 2025.
