The one hour flight will fly over the Elizabeth Islands, No Man’s Land and Martha’s Vineyard at a time that is mutually convenient.

Most recently he exhibited his work in Wheat, Washington, 2009-2012 at the Danforth Art Museum (Framingham, MA) and Neal Rantoul and Brian Kaplan: Views of Cape Code and the Massachusetts Islands at Panopticon Gallery in Boston, both of which featured his characteristic aerial photographs, which were praised for their “winning simplicity and clarity” by Boston Globe critic Mark Feeney.

Rantoul’s works is in many permanent collections around the world including the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston (TX), Kunsthaus (Zurich, Sweden), Bibliothèque Nationale de France (Paris), High Museum (Atlanta, GA), Princeton University Art Museum (Princeton, NJ), Rhode Island School of Design Museum of Art (Providence), Center for Creative Photography (Tucson, AZ), and in Massachusetts at the Boston Athenaeum, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, DeCordova Sculpture Park and Museum (Lincoln), and Fogg Museum (Cambridge).
