Bridge 52 on the Abingdon Branch
Steam Power: Railroad Photographs of O. Winston Link
Saturday, Jun 28, 2008 to Aug 24, 2008
Experience the power of locomotives through the dramatic photographs of O. Winston Link (1914- 2001), America’s premier photographer of steam railroading. From 1955-1960, Link made twenty trips to Norfolk & Western Railway tracks in Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, and North Carolina, producing 2,400 images using a Graphic View Camera. Among Link’s innovations was his solution to the problem of lighting, for as he once said, “You can’t move the sun, and you can’t move the tracks.” He custom-built his own flash equipment required for the large-scale photos he preferred to shoot at night.

Putting it Together
Unknown Bridges: Pencil Drawings of Terry Miller
Saturday, Jun 28, 2008 to Aug 24, 2008
Bridges figure prominently in Link’s photographs and in Terry Miller’s pencil drawings. Best known to Woodson Art Museum visitors through his participation in sixteen Birds in Art exhibitions, Miller’s Unknown Bridges introduce an entirely new dimension of his artistic interests. Don’t be surprised to spot a bird or two, however.
