Carson Valley Arts Council (CVAC) presents photographer Don Langson at the Copeland Gallery in Minden from January 30 through March 22, 2024. Carson Valley Arts Council will host an artist’s reception for Don on Saturday, February 10 from 1 until 3 p.m. The reception is free and open to the public. Come and meet Don Langson.
Don’s unusual talent comes from Don’s study under the Masters of Photography such as Ansel Adams, Ralph Gibson, Paul L. Gittings Jr., Robert Heineeken, George Krause, Nathan Lyons, Jerry Uelsmann, and Cole Weston to name a few.
Through Don’s work viewers can instantly transport themselves to the location of the photo to experience the color, texture, mood and feelings of the environment. His photographs allow the viewer their own interpretation, their own memories and storytelling.
Don has taught photography in Texas and Nevada; is a founding member of the Professional Photographers Guild of Houston; and the Houston Photographic Society as well as a member of Friends of Photography in Camel, California. Don is also an accomplished printmaker. Don’s current venture is interpreting the vast landscapes of the American West. The exhibit can be viewed Monday through Saturday 10 am to 5 pm. Don’s work will be available for purchase.
