Art @ the J Exhibit: Len Rachlin

10/2/2019

 
Our newest Art exhibit features the work of Len Rachlin. Len Rachlin is a photographer and sculptor who was born in Ellenville, N.Y.  He graduated from Stony Brook University with both B.A. and M.A degrees. Later he obtained an M.B.A. degree from Baruch College. He studied sculpture at the Brooklyn Museum Art School, the Art Students League and the New York Academy of Art. He learned the basics of photography from his father who was a baby photographer and is otherwise self-taught. He worked for a hotel photographer, as a photography counselor at a summer camp and for Stony Brook University’s Office of Public Relations to earn money for college expenses. Later he did wedding photography before becoming interested in the artistic side of photography. Rachlin juggled being a math teacher as well as doing sculpture and photography.

He has exhibited, mostly in group shows, at various locations including Stony Brook University, Wagner College, St. John’s University, Brooklyn Museum Community Gallery, Staten Island Museum, Salmagundi Club, Numeroff Gallery, R.K. Parker Gallery, Rosenberg Gallery, Valsamis Gallery, SVA East Side Gallery, Red Carpet Gallery, Gallery 6, Brooklyn Waterfront Artists Coalition, Fort Wadsworth Visitors Center, Greenbelt Nature Center, Blue Heron Park and Planting Fields Arboretum. His sculptures are realistic figurative bronzes. He works first in clay, then plaster and finally casts his work into bronze using the lost wax casting process. The primary subject of his photography is people- mostly candid shots. Other subjects he has pursued are landscapes, nature, still lifes, nude studies and portraits.

Rachlin’s sculptures and photographs are in many private collections. His bronze portrait bust of George W. Curtis can be seen in the entrance vestibule of Curtis High School on Staten Island. He has published two books of his photographs, Photographic Visions, Blurb Press, 2008 and Coney Island Views, Blurb Press, 2008.

Come see the exhibit, on display at the Murray Berman Art @ the J Gallery at the Bernikow Building through October!
