“Captive Beauty” At Images Cinema Benefits Sonsini Shelter

08:53AM / Thursday, August 13, 2009

WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. - What do an independent, non-profit cinema in Williamstown, a small animal shelter in Pittsfield, and a fine art photographer in Bennington have in common? A love of animals.

Images Cinema will host “Captive Beauty: Faces of the Eleanor Sonsini Animal Shelter,” an exhibit of fine art black and white photographs by Bennington's Lodiza LePore, in their lobby September 1 – October 1. The photos show the beauty and inner souls of past and present residents of Pittsfield’s Eleanor Sonsini Animal Shelter. The opening reception is Friday, September 11, 5:30-7:30pm. Donations will be accepted to benefit the Sonsini Animal Shelter. Images Cinema is located at 50 Spring Street, Williamstown.

From a regally reclining cat to a large dog’s head resting on a car window, the photographs capture the innate beauty and diverse personalities of these animals waiting for someone to say, "You are the one!" Viewing hours: Monday, 6:30-9:30pm; Tuesday – Saturday, 11:00 a.m.- 9:30 p.m.; Sunday, Noon - 8:30 pm.

Lodiza's award-winning, published work has been displayed around the country, and is well represented in the coffee table book "Image Is Rochester." All archival gelatin silver images (with no computer manipulation) are hand printed and toned in her traditional darkroom.

In 2008, the Sonsini Shelter found new homes for almost 600 animals, returned more than 200 lost animals to their homes and was voted “Berkshire’s Best Place to Get a Pet” by Berkshire Eagle readers. The shelter is located in the Downing Industrial Park, Pittsfield, MA.

The only one of its kind in Berkshire County, Images Cinema is a year-round non-profit, member-supported community film house that presents a wide range of films that impact filmmaking and our culture. Images continuously seeks to entertain, educate and engage the community with quality programming, while maintaining its dedication to independent film and media. Images Cinema is supported in part by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency. Check for up-to-date happenings at www.imagescinema.org.
