October 7th marked the opening of a one-man exhibition of Photographic work by Dana Hursey. Hanging at the Pasadena Conservatory of Music, the 12 pieces were commissioned for the 2007 Pasadena Art & Ideas Festival as part of the Conservatory’s contribution to the city-wide celebration. This year’s festival was themed “Skin”.

The Conservatory wanted to visually explore the interaction between musician and instrument and called upon Los Angeles Photographer Dana Hursey to interpret their concept. An Artist’s Reception was held on the evening of October 7th, 2007 and the series will hang at the Conservatory permanently, a gift from the artist. Limited edition prints will be available through the conservatory with 50% of all proceeds going directly to the Conservatory. To see a web gallery of the series, go to www.hursey.com/pcm
