“Rock #2” (2013). Photograph by Neal Rantoul.
“Barbarous Coasts,” the inaugural exhibition of 555 Gallery, a new contemporary art gallery in Boston, depicts two disparate locations, Alaska’s Upper Cook Inlet and the shores of Hofsos, Iceland. But David Mattox’s photographs of salmon fishing and Neal Rantoul’s images of basalt columns together form a cohesive view of the animated and craggy life at sea. The complementary nature of the photographers’ subject matter is further highlighted, aesthetically, by the saturated colors palettes throughout.
“Barbarous Coasts” is on view through March 22nd.
