En route between shows in London and New York a 25 year retrospective of Cork born London based photographer David Magee opens at the Lavit Gallery today. Magee, whose fine art photography is in international collections, studied at the Crawford and the Glasgow School of Art and Design. The exhibition “Outside” presents 32 limited edition photographs utilising the elements he is most at home with, earth, water and air. “In my photographs there is no real sense of time or specific place” Magee said. “The location is totally secondary to the feeling. The feeling is everything. I aim to portray not just what exists, but what is not obvious; that imperceptible element that stirs emotion and a sense of contemplation”. Shown here is his remarkable photograph Kilbrittain I. The exhibition runs until July 20.
