Hand in Glove, an exhibition by photographer Nick Mango at the VTSU Castleton Bank Gallery in Rutland, brings a new direction to portraiture. By juxtaposing pictures of people with the gloves they wear for their work or play, a more nuanced – and interesting - portrayal of that person emerges. And, as the people photographed are all from Tinmouth, a true sense of the town's community spirit is evoked by bringing the images together. The exhibition runs at the gallery, 104 Merchants Row, Rutland, from Nov. 10 through Dec. 31, Thursday-Saturday, 12-6 p.m. A reception will be held on Saturday, Nov. 11 from 5:30-7 p.m.
VTSU Castleton Bank Gallery is open to the public Thursday through Saturday with hours of operation from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. So if you find yourself in Rutland, please stop by. I attended the reception and truly enjoyed seeing Nick's portraits.
