South Hampton, NY — Prepare to be transported to the enchanting landscapes of Iceland through the lenses of esteemed photographers Ron Buchter of East Hampton and Keith A. Manning of Brooklyn. Their joint exhibition, aptly titled “Icelandic Poetry,” is a visual celebration of Iceland’s captivating beauty and cultural allure. The exhibition is scheduled to take place from Tuesday, September 12th, through Sunday, October 1st, 2023, at the prestigious South Hampton Cultural Center, nestled at 25 Pond Lane in South Hampton, New York.

Ron Buchter, a self-taught fine art photographer with an extensive portfolio of exhibitions, brings a distinct perspective to “Icelandic Poetry.” His evocative images capture the essence of Iceland’s natural wonders, showcasing the interplay of light, texture, and emotion in every frame.

Keith A. Manning, an accomplished award-winning photographer, weaves his deep connection with Iceland into his remarkable work.

The “Icelandic Poetry” exhibition promises a multi-sensory experience, allowing visitors to discover Iceland’s breathtaking vistas, from majestic glaciers to sweeping valleys. The exhibition’s timing in early fall adds a layer of magic to the visual journey, encapsulating the transition of seasons in this remote and poetic land.
