JEFFERSON HAYMAN’s handcrafted silver gelatin, pigment and platinum prints are deeply connected to the history of photography, the highest traditions of graphic art, and a belief in beauty as a necessary function of architectural space.

Hayman’s images of still lives, cityscapes and portraiture are a nostalgic journey to an obscure and imperceptible time period. He employs negative space, filtered light and grainy tones to build an aesthetic of mystery, shadows and time suspended. The subject matter is familiar – personal objects, moments, situations and places that seem to be evidence of an imagined history, one where memories are dreamed, felt and shared but not owned. The sense of nostalgia is also evident in the craftsmanship of the self-designed and constructed frames which accompany each piece. The works are paired with antique or artist made frames which place them in the realm of unique statements. Jefferson Hayman’s artwork can be found in many private and public collections, most notably The Museum of Modern Art , The New York Public Library, President Bill Clinton , Robert DeNiro, The Boston Athenaeum and Ralph Lauren.

A PORTFOLIO for PROVINCETOWN

by JEFFERSON HAYMAN

We are pleased to announce a special portfolio of photographs by renowned photographer JEFFERSON HAYMAN. The Provincetown Portfolio consists of twelve carefully selected Archival Pigment Prints and one introductory image, all on archival 100 lb. matte surface paper presented in a boxed set with titled overlays. The photographs have been selected by the photographer as a note to Provincetown and consist of nine images taken of the town and surrounding seashore during the last three years and four images from the photographer’s studio. The suite of images specifically addresses aspects of the Cape’s landscape such as time, nostalgia, light, memory, journeying, and art history. The photographs range in size from one miniature (‘Fence’ is printed at 3.75″ x 1.5″ and is a lovely nod to Paul Strand) to 12×10″, just inside the edges of the 12×16″ paper. The portfolio is being produced as an edition of twenty-five boxed sets.
