Alan Ranger's first solo exhibition at Gallery150,
showcases stunning and dramatic images of Warwickshire and the UK countryside
and coastline.
In
his first solo show ‘Escapes’, Alan Ranger takes us on an evocative
journey across land and sea.
A
passionate photographer, Alan, who previously wrote poetry, expresses his
creative vision through the lens of a camera, immortalising objects, people and
landscapes that reflect the beauty of light, shade and texture.
In 2008, after attending a
workshop with John Gravett of Lakeland Photographic Holidays, Alan transformed
his hobby into a vocation, exhibiting at shows with FIAP (Federation
Internationale de l'Art Photographique) and British Photographic
Exhibitions (BPE), winning numerous awards for his landscapes. In 2010, he
gained a "Licentiateship" at the Royal Photographic Society, and now
aims to complete his Associate Distinction in 2012. Alan, who
works as an IT Manager, also runs local photography meet ups and provides tuition and
master classes to beginners and those looking to pursue their interest in
photographic art.
His varied work has a unique style that he has developed through his
determination and an innate desire for perfection. The photographer takes
something seemingly ordinary and transforms it into something extraordinary,
creating dynamic and inspiring images that draw the viewer into a magical and dreamlike
world.
In a poetry of texture and light, Alan’s vision and emotion can be
clearly seen in his images, which are often inspired by his love of music, but
also his ability to view everyday scenes and objects from a different and
unusual perspective, providing the viewer with a window into his soul.
