AMAZING! Larry Kanfer’s skill and body of work has been compared to Ansel Adams’ with good reason. His photographs take the ordinary and show us the extraordinary beauty of nature. His ability to show the beauty in the everyday scenery with his prairiescapes is a gift in particular to Midwesterners. Beyond the prairiescapes, University of Illinois and Chicago photographs, a visit to the gallery is a chance to see Kanfer’s international work which is equally stunning. The artist himself, because his work is true artistry, is gracious with his time and very welcoming.
