about the photographer
Marshall Gould’s sharp, high contrast black-and-white photographic images can be characterized by diagonal framing, clean compositions, dramatic highlights and strong, luxurious shadows. Often taking documentary-style shots on location, Gould’s latest subject matter might involve a landscape of the American West, a series of an historic, iconic industrial/architectural landmark, a series of equine images documenting the relationship between a mare and her newborn foal, a series documenting the Mexican workers in the U.S., or a culture/lifestyle image, making these gritty, regional works as conceptually dense as they are compositionally superb. Usually incorporating elements of the earth and/or sky, Gould’s works are about co-existence and reference the stylistic philosophies of early black-and-white “Golden Age” photography. Although most of his work is primarily in monochrome, he does work in color, especially when shooting “Americana” images. Whatever the photographic medium, Gould continually aims to convey a vibrant and provocative visual narrative about the land, culture and residents of his current locale.He has exhibited at the Agora Gallery in NYC, The Blank Wall Gallery in Athens, Greece, and The Open Shutter Gallery in Durango, Colorado.
