Here's to Another Successful Year!
The 2008 PRC Benefit Auction kicks off another successful programming cycle at the PRC. We have had an incredible year and seen the organization continue to flourish.
In the past year, we have heard memorable lectures by Arno Rafael Minkkinen, Albert Watson, Andrea Robbins and Max Becher, Andy Grundberg, Ralph Gibson, and Tina Barney.
Our exhibitions included AD | AGENCY, which brought together ideas on the art and commercial world, and the landscape exhibition, New England Survey , which traveled to the Fruitlands Museum in Harvard, MA this fall. The PRC's Picture Show won an award from the New England chapter of the International Association of Art Critics, USA, and Lesley A. Martin, Aperture Publisher, Aperture Book Program, juried an exciting Exposure exhibition.
This past summer, the gallery was full of the next generation of photographers attending the third year of our Summer Photo Camp.
We begin our fall season with this important event and exhibition that brings together close to 200 amazing vintage and contemporary photographs.
The Benefit Auction is our primary fundraising event and we hope that you will enjoy the evening and help support the PRC by bidding high on your favorite piece.
