The Griffin is pleased to showcase the works of Frank Siteman as part of our summer public art project, Vision(ary). Frank Siteman is a resident and chronicler of life in Winchester. His images soar above the streets to capture the light, movement and changes of the town. We are so grateful to partner with the Jenks Center of Winchester to bring this exhibition to the community.
About Frank Siteman –
Frank Siteman was born in St. Louis in 1947. He attended Tufts University, where he majored in chemistry. Already immersed in photography, he shot portraits of the entire college faculty in exchange for his tuition. He soon received an assignment to photograph an annual report for a Boston area rehab hospital, and taught in a Boston youth project. Following his graduation from Tufts, where he launched the photography department through the Experimental College, he began teaching at the Roxbury Latin School, the Orson Welles Film School, Simmons College, and the Art Institute of Boston. During this time, he discovered the world of stock photography. Over the next several decades, he worked steadily shooting stock and completing commercial assignments, shooting the world while traveling. His photographs found their way into agencies, which sold them for a myriad of uses in magazines, advertising, annual reports, multi-media shows and textbooks. He continues to photograph the world and the people around him, living alternately in Winchester, MA and the White Mountains of NH.
The Griffin @ The Jenks Center is located at 109 Skillings Road in Winchester. Hours are Monday through Friday from 9am to 4pm, Saturdays 8.30am to 2.30pm and closed on Sunday.
