NEW LIMITED EDITION PRINT BY JOHN SEXTO I am pleased to announce a new Limited Edition print of a favorite image, Lower Cascade, Roaring Fork River, near Aspen, Colorado. This photograph accompanied Arthur Ollman's foreword in my book Recollections. I enjoyed the challenge of printing this negative when making the print for the reproduction in the book, and have included the print in two museum exhibitions, but have never offered the print for sale – until now. I enjoy the intimate feeling of this smaller – rather than larger – reproduction in Recollections, and decided to offer this Limited Edition print in 8x10" size to maintain that intimacy. The photograph was made at dusk (as are many of my photographs!) along the Roaring Fork River a few miles upstream from Aspen, Colorado. This scenic stretch of river cuts through some amazing granite, forming beautiful polished, almost metallic, sculptural shapes in the rock. This image was made during my annual two-week Anderson Ranch workshop that I offered over a period of eighteen years. That particular year the water was quite low, which appealed to me. I had made similar images during previous visits (I love to return to the same place repeatedly to make photographs), but this particular evening the combination of the light, the wet sculpted granite, and the river level brought all of the elements together. I hope you will find this an interesting and abstract image, that contrasts the delicate nature of the water – further softened by the one minute exposure – with the wet granite that has been polished smooth over the eons by the rushing river. The print is offered in a Limited Edition of 100 signed and numbered silver gelatin prints, plus 10 Artist's Proofs. When the edition is sold out no further prints will be made for sale in any size. The introductory price of this Limited Edition print is $800 - a 20% discount off of the normal retail price of an 8x10" Limited Edition print. After June 15, 2016 the retail price for any remaining prints will increase to $1,500, and escalate as the edition sells.
