    Photographer Robb Kendrick's Still: Cowboys at the Start of the Twenty-First Century, an exhibition of sublime tintype photographs which represent contemporary cowboys of the twenty-first century are selected from his book of the same title. Kendrick traveled 41,000 miles across 14 states and throughout Canada and Mexico with his roving darkroom to make this series of images. Kendrick, also well known for his work for National Geographic, is part of a growing group of commercial and fine art photographers who have chosen the non-digital path of early photographic techniques. The relatively slow, laborious process of making a tintype image is a part of its allure and an important part of Mr. Kendrick's process of connecting with his rugged, hard-working subjects. After all, a good, hard day's work is a respectable kind of work.

    Opening Friday, July 11, 5pm-8pm as a part of the 2nd Friday Artwalk events. The exhibition continues through July 23. Special gallery hours for the Chapel of Art Gallery will occur on Friday, July 4, Noon-5pm, in celebration of the Ride for the Brand Ranch Rodeo Cattle Drive in Downtown Colorado Springs on the same day.
