Fans of both Maggie Moore's and Kristoffersen's will be happy to know the Double Take Photo Exhibit will be on display through April 25. This is the first show in which our gallery's frame shop, Framo Products, has provided all of the framing. Many wonderful comments have been made, consistently noting the artistic value of the framing and matting that accentuates these beautiful photographic works. Also, our patrons will be happy to note that all works are available in print. Thereby, we can provide a framing and matting that may better suit your taste as well as your price point.
One does not necessarily need be an equestrian of any sort in order to appreciate this photo exhibit. From Maggie's "Rainbows Aren't Just In The Sky" to Kristoffersen's "Steeplechase" in watercolor, this is artistic photography, no doubt. One can appreciate both the subject matter as well as the presentation provided by the framing and matting. Just about anyone with any decor might incorporate these thoughtful pieces into a living space. After all, the horse can provoke many statements of man's conquests, work ethic, history, poetry and humanity. Come and visit our gallery and experience this show before it's bound for a national tour!
Double Take of the Great American Horse celebrates the fact that the Tennessee Walking Horse was originally from Middle Tennessee where it was designed and bred. This is one of the most versatile horses on the planet! We, here in Middle Tennessee would do well to take ownership of this exhibit and proudly support it by coming to view it and recognize that the Tennessee Walking Horse is iconic, magical, authentic and unique. Don't miss seeing this FREE show before it's ending on April 25!
Also, Maggie Moore has provided her beautiful coffee table book, entitled Walking With Friends, for sale at $55 each or two (2) for $90. This book is full of photos she's taken of the Tennessee Walking Horse in all 48 states. Yes, this is a very American Horse, indeed!! Give one to a friend...for a birthday, Christmas, or just friendship!
In observing these photographic works, one is gently pulled into these artists' concepts. It's beautiful to see the way Maggie has seemingly captured the real personalities of her equestrian friends - you can even equate these, perhaps, to that of a certain human loved one, ie, their strength, their character, their passion and on and on. Kristoffersen shows the mystery, the magic, and the memories in his Civil War Reenactment Photos. Amazing! It's as though you're seeing a moment as it truly happened. These works will make wonderful gifts for someone special. Again, we here at Take 121 Arts invite you, with your family and your friends to come and experience this relaxed, yet inspiring photo art exhibit, on display through April 25. Be our guests! We're opened Tue - Fri, 10AM - 6PM, Sat. 11AM - 3PM or by appointment. Just call us at (615)244-4642 or visit our Web site at
