Morris Klein @ Bonte’s 17th Steet

Photographic Society of Philadelphia VP, Morris Klein‘s one-person photo show at Bonte’s Cafe is très chic.  The space is below street level, the warm smell of waffles and coffee waft up to greet you, immediately transporting you to Belgium.  The intimate space offers the artist an opportunity to exhibit a good selection of larger scaled work – in this case Morris Klein features richly saturated landscapes with a particularly poetic palette of color and hue, DoN’s eye was fooled a few times into thinking the images were paintings, the lush view of Boathouse Row is certainly painterly.

PSoP has a great new friend in the Bonte Cafe’s in Center City: 922 Walnut has 8 x 10″s, 13th & Walnut is 16 x 20″s and 17th Street is solo shows.  Klein currently has a call to PSoP artists to submit show proposals – a big thank you to Morris & Eilleen Eckstein for maintaining such a high level of public visability for Philly photographers.
