Lance Keimig is a photographer and educator who specializes in Night
Photography. Inspired by the transformative and unpredictable quality
of
light after dark, Keimig has been photographing primarily at night for
the
past twenty years. He has exhibited his work since 1990, and is represented
by the Pepper Gallery in Boston, MA, The Nocturnes in San Francisco,
CA, and
MDH Studios in Japan. Recent exhibits include a solo show at the Art
Complex
Museum in Duxbury, MA, Commonwealth Museum in Boston, MA, and Fort Mason
Center for the Arts in San Francisco, CA.
A dedicated teacher, Keimig has been teaching photography since 1997,
teaching at colleges, regional art centers, and through his own workshops
in
California, Massachusetts, and internationally. In 2003 Keimig founded
the
Mono Lake Photo Workshops in California, to promote interest in the
fragile
ecosystem of the Eastern Sierras through photography. Keimig is also
a
cofounder of The Nocturnes, a San Francisco based organization that
has
promoted Night Photography through workshops, exhibitions, and the award
winning web site, www.thenocturnes.com
since 1991.
Travel has always been an important part of Keimig¹s work, which
has taken
him from Japan to Zimbabwe, where he documented the humanitarian efforts
to
provide medical care to impoverished peoples. Keimig leads photo tours
to
places like Ireland, Scotland, Paris, and Prague. Keimig’s photographs
are held in numerous collections including The Art Complex Museum, The
Boston Atheneum, Fidelity, Hitachi, and 3 Com Corporations. Examples
