"The
re-emergence of the artists's hand, after years of suppression, is one of
the hallmarks of art-world
and art-world influenced photography. This is obvious...in looking at an
excellent survey exhibition mounted by
the Bronx Museum of Art and called 'Photo/Start'... the smaller images have
compact charms of their own,
especially the collaborative farm scenes of Dennis Paul and Lynn Small..."

"...the
art show entitled Pennsylvania Dutch Earth Series, by the New York artists Dennis
Paul and Lynn Small
- a collaborative combination of interpretive documentary photography and evocative
modernist painting -
presents images of the Amish way of life within the context of contemporary
cultural dialogue...
Their concerns are environmental and ecological, as well as aesthetic...
The seamless combination of photographic and painterly processes by which they
are rendered
results in a perfectly picturesque presentation of an ethereal experience.
Additionally, the contrast between traditional values and modern culture,
which is implicit in this exhibit, is synthesized into a harmonious aesthetic
unity."
