Since the late sixties, Todd Lockwood has been shooting black and white studio portraits of friends
and acquaintances. His large-scale prints are an exercise in hyperrealism, exquisite light and
authenticity. Every well-earned wrinkle and blemish are magnified and gloriously rendered. In
2015, he began experimenting with a new kind of portrait, combining portrait photography,
cinema, and writing. He calls them Cinema Portraits. These pieces continue his portrait aesthetic
and are technically virtuosic and poignantly intimate, inviting the viewer into relationship with
his subjects.
Lockwood and Killacky will talk about his portraits, with the artist sharing some of the cinema
portraits, including those of Stephen Kiernan, Margaret Strouse, John Douglas, Mike Gordon,
and Killacky.
