Block Party R7e is an abstraction of a very small detail of another abstract image (Clouds 558r). What is seen here is about 1/100 of a square inch of the original image, almost down to its grain level. To me it seems to be a bird's eye view of a street party in NYC on a simmer night, with tons of people milling around, socializing. There are several versions of this series, each limited to 3 prints for each version. in version R7e, I have reduced all elements to the same saturation and contrast level so they blend into a flat plane and none jumps out of the plane of the image. It s the movement and energy I’m trying to convey, and if they have a point of inspiration, I suppose it is Jackson Pollack s work; though I have to note that Brice Marden's Line Muses and Beyond Eagles Mere probably had some influence too.

Please note - due to Covid-19 limitations still affecting me, delivery will take about 3-4 weeks depending on destination country

Ken Lerner is a passionate photographic artist, born into a family of renowned photographers in 1947. He began taking photos at the age of 6, using a camera given to him by his father. But he was not interested in simply reproducing real life moments. His vision was more subjective and he sought to project an internal reality of that moment.

At the beginning of his career, he almost exclusively created images with multiple exposures. This gave a complex structure to the images and represented a subjective view of the world. In the 2010s, after working in financial product sales, he returned to photography producing only single exposure images. Even though they were less structurally complex, they still represented a subjective view of the world, being almost totally abstract. Ken works extensively with reflective surfaces such as water, glass and metal.

A lover of the beauty of nature, Ken Lerner paints and photographs a lot of landscapes and seascapes. He is interested in presenting different possibilities of representing "nature" and often produces many variations of an image with different colors, shades, contrasts and saturations.
