Drake Sorey

We just installed Drake's show in Gallery One at NIH. Truly striking images and breathtaking color. Drake, like Cameron Davidson have a background in commercial photography. Which affords them a breadth of subject matter and great technology. There is something about their work which pulls out all the stops. The show looks great - come see it if you can!

Artist Statement:
Oklahoma born photographer Drake Sorey has a penchant for wide open spaces and the American West. Simple, straightforward compositions and bold colors are constants. This exhibit of large archival prints made personally by the artist, using both digital and traditional film media, includes landscapes, portraits, and abstracts. Drake has been photographing people, places, and things for over thirty years. He has lived and worked on both coasts in the United States, and also in Europe. His work has shown at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Woman's National Democratic Club (both group shows), and more recently at the Arts Club of Washington in a two-man show. Drake's web site here
