•  ENNID BERGER 
has been described as a “distinguished Long Island artist” (Newsday). Photography is her primary art medium. She explores and combines digital and traditional darkroom printing, cameraless photography, photocollage and multimedia projects. She is especially interested in the spatial interplay of figure, form and light.  

Ennid has exhibited extensively in solo and group shows in Key West and across Long Island, including the Heckscher Museum of Art, the Parrish Art Museum and the Islip Museum of Art. Her photographic work has been selected for exhibition in three Long Island Biennials, and her photograph, Construction Singapore, was awarded Best in Show at the First Long Island Biennial in 2010.  The same photo was selected by the National Association of Women Artists for their permanent collection at the Zimmerli Art Museum at Rutgers University.
Ennid studied photography at the International Center of Photography and studied painting with renowned artists Robert Yasuda, Paul Pagk, Betty Holliday and Stan Brodsky. She is also the founder of the group of ten independent artists that has been meeting and exhibiting as the Critique Group of Long Island since 2009. Ennid is proud to be a member of Huntington’s Fotofoto Gallery. More information online at ennid.com and on Instagram at @ennidberger


•  ANNE COGNATO 
can often be found in her garden photographing her flowers.  She is a fine art photographer who has exhibited around Long Island.  In her spare time, in addition to being a photographer, she is a poet, an IT professional and aspiring harp player.

"Roots" anchor a flower in place allowing it to withstand the elements. Roots spread throughout a family linking one generation to another. This show was created through my love of flowers, family and childhood memories.
My great-grandmother, Johanna, had a beautiful flower garden and grass that was like velvet on bare feet. She is featured in two pictures. In her beautiful dress, I have added red tulips across the picture. The tulip pictures were captured in early morning daylight filtered in through a window. Johanna is in another picture with my great-grandfather in front of their house. Windflower gives the photo texture, while the cone flower brightens it up.
My Aunt Ella was an artist, selling her work on the sidewalks of Hoboken. Every year for her birthday, my uncle would buy her a rose bush.  Her garden was full of them.
My parents on their wedding day, Love in a Mist, my brother and I in front of an old TV, Central Park, postcards written in German, silver dollar plants, flapper girls and alliums, blanket flower--
This is my family, and these are my flowers."


•  RICHARD GARDNER 
Gardner's roots are grounded in beauty. Major influences include the celebrated fashion photographer Sarah Moon in addition to Surrealist artist Man Ray. For decades, as a hairdresser, make-up artist, and photographer, he has documented the perceived reality of beauty within the current zeitgeist. His photography has been shown in galleries nationally and internationally. A self-taught photographer, Gardner has taken courses at both the International Center of Photography and Center of Photography at Woodstock. His hand-colored images have been a part of the course curriculum at ICP. 

In addition to his fine artwork, Gardner had accepted professional commissions from the beauty industry. Clients had included Revlon and L’Oreal. Richard is a member of fotofoto Gallery and of Soho Photo Gallery. He was chosen as one of Long Island Pulse Magazine’s V.I.P. Artists

"A Note for Juliet" shows a unique floral series of black and white photographs.  A collection of atmospheric blossoms has been created as a tribute to the memory of Juliet Man Ray, wife of the surrealist artist Man Ray.  The selection is named for a Haiku I wrote many years ago for my dear friend, Juliet, shortly after her death.  ‘Breath in Autumn chill I touched the flower The very last rose”
