Deck the Walls 2019

DECK THE WALLS
Opening Reception: Saturday, December 7, 2019, 6-8pm

Deck the Walls is an annual group exhibition of vintage and contemporary pieces that allows Catherine Couturier Gallery to showcase a variety of artists, prices, styles, and photographic mediums. Deck the Walls is expected to feature works by Robert Mapplethorpe, Horst P. Horst, and Robert Doisneau. Other exhibited artists will include Maggie Taylor, Joyce Tenneson, Kate Breakey, Kenny Braun, Susan Burnstine, Harry Callahan, Mabry Campbell, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Mitch Dobrowner, Jeri Eisenberg, Andre Kertesz, Weegee, Russell Lee, Aaron Siskind, Tom Baril, Rachel Phillips, Brett Weston, and Jerry Uelsmann just to name a few. There will be something for everyone’s budget and taste.

Catherine Couturier Gallery is Houston's premier destination for fine art photography. We specialize in classic 20th century photographs and contemporary work of highly respected artists. We enjoy finding that special image for the collector, be it by presenting an artist or medium previously unseen or a hard-to-find piece by a true master in the field. The gallery also sells a wide range of rare and vintage books and publications by many of today's best-known contemporary artists.

Deck the Walls will be on view from December 7, 2019 – January 11, 2020.

Over 70 photographs will be on display. Take a look at a small selection of what will be in the show!
