Gorglione & Cherry

Venue: Holos Gallery.

Location: San Francisco, CA, USA.

Date: Dec. 7 1984 - Feb. 28, 1985

Catalog: No.

Type: Holograms, Glass Sculpture & Paintings.

Work by Gorglione & Cherry.

From the Press Release Sent Out by Holos Gallery, San Francisco:
"Gorglione and Cherry"
"An environmental installation of holograms... The artworks in this installation encompass a wide range of technique and revolve around the aesthetic themes of Nature, Man and Death. "Tree" and "Water" are among large collage works (by Gorglione,) each composed of more than twenty multicolored 4" by 5" reflection holograms. Together with (Gorglione's) "Sunrise" a five foot long collage of intense rainbow projections created with diffraction techniques, these works compose the "Nature" section of the installation.

The adjoining section, "Man" presents both figurative beauty as well as images of the more negative impacts of man on nature. Holograms in garish plastic neon colors are featured, and some incorporate a unique new method of computer animated movement by Greg Cherry. "Ship Wreck," a theatrical tableau of real objects and holograms portraying the cabin of a ship about to sink, represents the final section of the installation. As a whole, this exhibit contains an essence of subtle spirituality that is uplifting and positive in nature. The works make provocative statements that demand response from the viewer while hinting at the possibility of realms of consciousness even beyond death...

...Gorglione is recognized as an artist creating works of sensitivity and beauty, while Cherry's extensive and broad ranging technological fluency is well documented. Together, they compliment each other naturally in their expression of science and art."
End of press release excerpt.

The "Ship Wreck" Tableau of Holograms was big fun for the artists to create. Gorglione and Cherry together made "Treasure," a 12" by 16" holographic pirate's map with singed edges and gold coins spilling out of the surface of the hologram. There was a porthole with a hologram inside, and, Greg Cherry made a moving light, a long mechanical armature for a light that moved back and forth across a reflection integral hologram's surface, illuminating a moving "Lantern".

To make this Integral Hologram, "Lantern," Cherry developed computer-animated control for real time movement of actual objects on the holographic isolation table. Each stepped object movement was exposed through a slit which also moved step by step across the holographic film. From 40 to 120 slits eventually composed a real-time animated integral transmission master for reflection copies. Each holographic slit on the master held a different phase of movement. The Master was copied as a gold toned image-plane reflection hologram. For the installation "tableau" the actual swinging light automated the holographic movement of the "Lantern" hologram. (The "Swinging Light" was later purchased without the hologram.)

Gorglione had earlier exhibited "Tree" at the Lightscapes' San Francisco Arts Festival exhibition. This reflection hologram art piece is composed of 35 multicolored image-plane reflection holograms derived from transmission Master holograms of Tree Trunk, Branches, Smaller Branches, and Leaves. The Masters were copied in double exposures using trieth (TEA) color control. The copies were arranged together to form the "Tree."The holograms were laminated and framed together as a single artwork, now in the collection of M.I.T. A smaller version, "Tree II" made by Nancy Gorglione, is in the collection of Greg Cherry.

"Water," another composite holographic art piece of many straight reflection holograms (off-axis reflection holograms not derived from masters) had beautiful shifting colors obtained from the interference and diffraction of watery amorphous objects and "just light."

During the run of this exhibition, on Dec. 21, 1985, Greg Cherry and Nancy Gorglione married. The same week, they formed partnership in Cherry Optical Holography.
