A group of local women photographers, who call themselves “Four
in Focus,” have presented an exhibit each year for the past 11
years, somewhere in the Denver area.
Artist Peggy Dietz says, “We choose a theme, work on it
independently from each other, find a venue and only at the end do
we reveal what we have created to each other.
“It always is a surprise and the beauty is how differently we
each interpret the theme. We are all very distinct in our style of
photography. This year the theme is “Food” and we are showing at
the Koelbel Library during the month of July.”
The quartet named their show “Food 4 Thought.” Photographers
are:
Marilyn Clark, who owns a portrait studio in the Denver Tech
Center, Timelapse Portraits. She has bee the photographer for the
Downs Syndrome Calendar for many years and has received awards for
her underwater photography and painterly photography. She has
recently exhibited images from China and France.
Peggy Dietz exhibits her work at Grace Gallery in the Santa Fe
Arts District and at the Depot Art Center in Littleton. She is
president of the Littleton Fine Arts Guild which operates the Depot
gallery. She recently won second place in the Curtis Arts and
Humanities Center’s Greenwood Village photography show.
Judy Kahn specializes in labor-intensive, hand-colored
photographs. She has recently exhibited independently at Swallow
Hill Music Association and at Koelbel Library.
Karen Kirkpatrick recently earned a fine arts degree from the
University of Denver, specializing in photojournalistic images. She
prefers working with black and white images. Her recent exhibit
with Marilyn Clark was called “Fall in Love With Paris.”
Koelbel Library is located at 5955 S. Holly St., Centennial. The
exhibit will be open during library hours.
