Rodger Kingston (rpkphoto)'s galleries http://rpkphoto.smugmug.com/ Born in Seattle, Washington and raised in Montana, Rodger Kingston has lived in Massachusetts since 1968. He has shown extensively throughout the United States, and his photographs are in many collections, including Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts, Harvard’s Fogg Art Museum, and the National Gallery of American Art and Corcoran Gallery of Art, both in Washington, DC. Museum curator, author, and photographic historian Clark Worswick has stated that Rodger Kingston “... is amongst the best artists that America has offered: for his generosity of' spirit: for the blast of adrenalin I get from his encounters with 'the great ordinary of American vernacular': for his sense of history in photography: and for his deep sense of proportion, common sense, and uncommon humor." Kingston's latest book is A LOST WORLD (see below). NEW AMERICAN PHOTOGRAPHS (also below) was published in 2007 in an edition of 50 signed and numbered copies accompanied by an original print, and is now more than 2/3 sold out. A Walker Evans scholar, he is the author of WALKER EVANS IN PRINT: AN ILLUSTRATED BIBLIOGRAPHY. He has a Masters Degree in Education from Harvard University. Two new galleries, "In The Vernacular: Photographs from the Rodger Kingston Collection" and "The Snapshot Century" feature images from Kingston's collections of vintage photographs. "Collecting photographs," he states, "comes from the same impulse as taking them with a camera. Collecting has given me powerful training for my eye." Archival inkjet prints in several sizes, printed by the photographer, are available through the Panopticon Gallery of Photography (http://www.panopt.com/home.php) or from Kingston directly; he can be reached at rpkphoto@comcast.net.
