ASMP CT Chapter Jay Maisel event
“Light, gesture, and color form the basis of all my images. This, coupled with an awareness of figure-ground relationship or photographic optical illusions, constitute half of the presentation,” says Maisel. “I will show you why and how images challenge perception. You do not always see what you think you see.”
Since his professional career started in 1954, Jay Maisel’s images have been used for advertising, editorial and corporate communications worldwide. He is widely exhibited and has numerous prints in private, corporate and museum collections. His books include Light in America, On Assignment (Photographers at Work), Jay Maisel’s New York, and his latest, A Tribute.
Jay has taught workshops since 1966 in Maine, NYC, Houston, Truckee, Aspen, Jamaica, Santa Fe, Italy and British Columbia, and he has lectured all over the USA, Australia and New Zealand. In fact, he will host six five-day workshops at his lower Manhattan studio alone this year.
His awards include the ASMP Life Time Achievement award, ASMP Photographer of the Year, International Center of Photography’s Infinity Award, and the Art Directors Club Hall of Fame.
Jay is a native of Brooklyn, New York. He earned his B.F.A. at Yale University and is a 1952 graduate of The Cooper Union where he majored in painting. At the beginning of his career, he worked with Swiss painter and photographer Herbert Matter, known best for his pioneering work in creating photomontages, and Alexi Brodovitch, who pioneered the role of the magazine art director in America at Harper’s Bazaar.
