Through Feb. 28: The Follies Return

Photographer Jim Oliver's photographic masterworks

By Paul Schrag on January 12, 2010

Photographer Jim Oliver has hung 40 mixed-bag photographic masterworks for your enjoyment at the Tahoma Center Gallery. The loose collection of images under the title The Follies Return will range from the impressionistic to film noir to works influenced by Ansel Adams. Some have that lovely soft glow, others will make you turn your head sideways. Others will hit you upside the head with their hard crystal clarity, drawing you into the world Oliver creates with his camera.
