Noble Sentinels

Noble Sentinels

The Bandstand Series by Jon Spencer

Playing on the symmetrical form of the structures, these ethereal images evoke a sense of their long lives and varied fortunes. The bandstands are recast as noble sentinels, bearing witness to the changing times around them.

“Jon Spencer has created photographs that are ethereal, at once very specific and yet so universal that the connection with the viewer is multifarious. The bandstands are indeed “silent sentinels”, but they also call out ever so majestically.”

Debra Klomp Ching, The Klompching Gallery, New York, writing in Troika Editions.
