Sol Fischler
Have a Seat: Chairs in Their Natural Habitat                                    

August 3, 2024 through September 15, 2024
Artist Reception: Saturday, September 7, 2024 @ 2:00 p.m.

Sol Fischler is a multi-award-winning film editor from Ardsley, NY who’s been taking thought-provoking pictures for over 60 years.

Mr. Fischler writes, "literally or in the abstract, every chair tells a story.

All of the chairs in this Collection existed where and how they were found — no chair was ever moved to create a picture.  The location and composition of the images are all natural, allowing the chairs to tell their own story, in their own space.  

Enjoy the patterns, the shapes, the colors...   and the whimsy!"

Sol's Dad taught him the rules of photography, and he immediately started breaking them — developing an expertise in both the literal and the abstract.  His film-editor’s eye for detail leads to a painstaking focus on composition, framing, and color, all combining to tell stories that might otherwise go unnoticed.

For the record, his Dad is very proud.

Currently Exhibit in the Glass Display Cases on the 2nd Floor at the Greenburgh Public Library

Norman Gaines
Rayguns
August 2 - September 29, 2024


Mr. Gaines saw his first science-fiction movie when I was five years old, in 1953.  Mr. Gaines writes, "almost of all the movies dealt in some way with ray guns.  These were always highly stylized instruments with (as I later found out) almost impossible capabilities.  At the same time I was these movies, a whole host of similar appearing ray gun toys were becoming available at what we call five-and-dime stores.  Every kid wanted one.  Not every kid could afford one, but as time went on the raygun held on as a popular item, and I found myself acquiring a few here and there.  I was even able to buy "signature" items, i.e. rayguns that were inspired by TV shows and movies.  I thought it would be appropriate to show a few of them to my Greenburgh neighbors."

As Mr. Gaines mentions, he has been a collector of toy rayguns for many years.  He has plastic rayguns from back in the 1960s and 70s as well as more sophisticated rayguns from movies such as Men in Black.  The display is varied, fun and fascinating.  The display is just a small sample of Mr. Gaines large collection.
