The Griffin Museum presents a photographic celebration of the 100th anniversary of Fenway Park – and the 20th anniversary of the museum, where Boston baseball has been very much a part of its history — with several exhibits.

Fenway Park, featuring the work of more than a dozen photographers, is in the Main Gallery, and There Goes Ted Williams, with photographs by museum founder Arthur Griffin and illustrations by Matt Tavares, is in the Atelier and Griffin galleries April 5 through May 27. Opening receptions are April 12, 7-8:30 p.m.

Fenway Park includes historical as well as contemporary photographs and ephemera related to the building, the neighborhood, and the people. It is not intended to be a definitive study of the history of Fenway Park, nor does it represent all photographers who have photographed the park in one way or another. It is, rather, a photographic celebration to the spirit of the Boston icon.

Photographs have been graciously provided by the Boston Red Sox, the Baseball Hall of Fame, the Clark Gallery, the FDR Museum, Historic New England, the McGreevy and Leslie Jones Collections at the Boston Public Library, the Don Zimmer family, the Dom DiMaggio family, Peter Griffin, Ralph and Betty Valentine, as well as the Decaneas Archive, Panopticon Gallery, Kane Gallery, and the estate of Maureen Richards.

Photographers invited to exhibit in Fenway Park are Lora Brody, Bill Chapman, Jim Dow, John W. Ferguson, David Levinthal, Lou Jones, Jack Kadis, Steve Morse, Tony Scarpetta, Stephen Sheffield, Mike Sleeper, Steve Wilstein, and Laura Wulf.

This exhibit would not be possible without the generous spirit of Paul Sneyd of Panopticon Imaging in Hingham, MA, and Jonathan Singer of Singer Editions in Boston, MA. The museum would also like to thank the Boston Red Sox for their guidance and time as well as opening their archives to us for this exhibition.

Everyone experiences Fenway in a personal way and the museum hopes visitors leave behind their stories and impressions of this Boston landmark as part of the exhibition.

Matt Tavares gives a members talk on There Goes Ted Williams on April 12, 6:15 PM, before the public opening. He also gives a gallery talk on April 22 at 3 PM.

Floor Plan

Amy Rindskopf's Terra Novus

At the market, I pick each one up, pulled in by the shapes as they sit together, waiting. I feel its heft in my hand, enjoy the textures of the skin or peel, and begin to look closer and closer. The patterns on each individual surface marks them as distinct. I push further still, discovering territory unseen by the casual observer, a new land. I am like a satellite orbiting a distant planet, taking the first-ever images of this newly envisioned place.

This project started as an homage to Edward Weston’s Pepper No. 30 (I am, ironically, allergic to peppers). As I looked for my subject matter at the market, I found that I wasn’t drawn to just one single fruit or vegetable. There were so many choices, appealing to both hand and eye. I decided to print in black and white to help make the images visually more about the shapes, and not about guessing which fruit is smoothest, which vegetable is greenest.

Artistic Purpose/Intent

Artistic Purpose/Intent

Tricia Gahagan

 

Photography has been paramount in my personal path of healing from disease and

connecting with consciousness. The intention of my work is to overcome the limits of the

mind and engage the spirit. Like a Zen koan, my images are paradoxes hidden in plain

sight. They are intended to be sat with meditatively, eventually revealing greater truths

about the world and about one’s self.

 

John Chervinsky’s photography is a testament to pensive work without simple answers;

it connects by encouraging discovery and altering perspectives. I see this scholarship

as a potential to continue his legacy and evolve the boundaries of how photography can

explore the human condition.

 

Growing my artistic skill and voice as an emerging photographer is critical, I see this as

a rare opportunity to strengthen my foundation and transition towards an established

and influential future. I am thirsty to engage viewers and provide a transformative

experience through my work. I have been honing my current project and building a plan

for its complete execution. The incredible Griffin community of mentors and the

generous funds would be instrumental for its development. I deeply recognize the

hallmark moment this could be for the introduction of the work. Thank you for providing

this incredible opportunity for budding visions and artists that know they have something

greater to share with the world.
