Hal Horwitz: Our Native Orchids,
A Retrospective
October 18 - November 23
Opening Reception Thursday, October 18 at 7PM
Hal Horwitz was a Richmond pediatric dentist who took up
photography as a hobby more than thirty years ago, developing
a special interest in native orchids. Horwitz photographed nearly
all of Virginia’s orchid species and attempted to photograph all
200 orchids native to the United States. He made scores of trips
into the habitats of these plants and created a photographic
record as remarkable for its scope as for its beauty.

Joanna Tyka: Contradictions —
Abstracts and Cityscapes
November 29 - January 15
Opening Reception Thursday, November 29 at 7PM
Abstract and figurative forms are in contradiction to each other,
but for Joanna Tyka, they’re parallel forms of her artistic expres-
sion. “I love to create cityscapes and landscapes to study form
and composition. I need to create abstract paintings to express
more in different timeframes and to relate a story by not telling
one. Both are ways for me to find harmony in colors and compo-
sition. Abstract and figurative reconciled.”
Exhibits at the Sara D. November Gallery are free and open to the public.
