March Photo of the Month

Photo by: Robert Siegelman

Robert Siegelman works in printmaking, photography, installation, and artists books. He teaches at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, and at the Eliot School in Jamaica Plain. He also teaches workshops regularly throughout New England. He is the Co-Director of Art In Amsterdam, a studio program for artists held each summer in the Netherlands.
The work and imagery that I pursue in photography uses sexuality as a metaphor. I am making photographs that are autobiographical, yet which many viewers find meaningful. I am seeking to express the need gay men often feel to create a sense of identity, within one’s self and culture. Many find their lives reflected in this work in ways that are generally not shown in artwork or the media.
