“Seasons” an exhibit of photographs
The Gallery-on-the Boulevard, located in the Kenilworth Public Library, presents “Seasons” an exhibit of photographs by photographer Barbara Wirkus of Kenilworth. The show will run from September through December.
Although she has attended classes and work shops, Wirkus considers herself self taught and had a darkroom to process prints that were exhibited in multiple group and solo shows in local galleries. She now has a digital Nikon D3500 with a Cannon 18-400mm lens.
She has received numerous awards including Award of Excellence – Westfield Art Association and First Place – Union County Senior art Exhibit.

Wirkus explains that she chose “Seasons” as her theme because it was peaceful without angst or stress. She captured images representing each season of the year. Many were close to home. A snowy Wilhelm, a tree ent, on her backyard tree; a blooming forsythia bush. Fall photos were taken from the back of a friend’s motorcycle. She rested the camera on his shoulder as they cruised through parks and countryside. The images are meant to provide a relaxing photographic experience for the viewer as well as a nostalgic journey for the artist.
The exhibit is free and open to the public during regular library hours. For more information call 908-276-2451.
