Jack Spencer (Born 1951) American, Silver Gelatin Print "Sandra With Veil"
Est: $250 - $400
Overall Size: 10 1/4 x 10 1/4 in. Sight Size: 5 x 5 in. Jack Spencer (Born 1951) American, Silver Gelatin Print "Sandra With Veil". Soft-focus photograph of a woman’s face partially veiled by a fine mesh, utilizing a moody, monochromatic palette and dramatic lighting to create a sense of mystery and introspection. Signed lower right. Numbered 1/20 lower left. Gallery label verso. Framed. Gemini said Jack Spencer (born 1951) is a highly influential self-taught American photographer whose work occupies the boundary between documentary realism and painterly abstraction. Born in Kosciusko, Mississippi, Spencer spent his early life in the rural South before eventually settling in Nashville, Tennessee. He is best known for his "painterly" approach to the medium, often distressing his prints in the darkroom with pigments, glazes, and physical abrasions to create a sense of mythic, "sepia-tinted" history. His seminal series, Native Soil, explored the complex emotional and racial landscape of the American South, while later projects like Apariciones (focused on Mexico) and This Land (an 80,000-mile odyssey across 48 states) cemented his reputation as a master of atmospheric storytelling. His work is held in prestigious permanent collections, including the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, and the private collection of Sir Elton John.

Est: $200 - $400
Jack Spencer (Born 1951) American, Gelatin Silver Print "Wild Horse". Cumberland Island, Georgia 1998 signed, numbered 14/50.
