San Diego, CA, September 03, 2010 -- Symbolic Collection announced today they wi ll be featured at ART SAN DIEGO Contemporary Art Fair (Hilton San Diego Bayfront : One Park Boulevard, San Diego, California, Booth #35). While Symbolic Collecti on has two new locations in San Diego with a fine art gallery in La Jolla and So rrento Vallery, there is another seasoned gallery in London called Scream London and a New York City project space located in the Fuller Building. Symbolic Coll ection consists of extraordinary pieces from the worlds of underground, pop cult ure, and fine art, music and entertainment memorabilia, watches and clocks, deco rative arts and objet d’art. At ART SAN DIEGO, they will feature the acclaimed pho tography of Dr. Jonathan Singer. A truly eccentric artist, Singer has an eye for capturing nature with his Hasselblad digital camera to produce images that look like the product of old master painters of the 1600s. The recipient of the Linnaeus silver medal, Singer has been recognized for marry ing art and science. He became the first photographer in history and fourth Amer ican to earn this award in its 104 year history, and to be known for marrying ar t with science in botanical photography. Singer is the recipient of a Hasselblad Prize Laureate, an international photography prize regarded as one of the most coveted awards in the field today. Singer has been named the Artist in Residence at the Huntington Botanical Garden in Pasadena and will be officially declared on October 19th. In addition to thi s honor, Dr. Singer has created a set of images exclusively for the Huntington k nown as the Huntington 100 or the H100. Prints from that series will be availabl e exclusively by Symbolic Collection. Known for his exquisite large-scale prints in Botanica Magnifica, a five-volume set of books that feature single blooms of 250 of the world’s rarest plants create d and presented only for the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C. “Just as the finest classical painter attempted to make his brush stroke invisible , I attempt to capture these botanical specimens with a clarity and humility bec oming an instrument serving a higher force,” said Singer. “Many of the most unusual species seen in Botanica Magnifica seem to be alien life forms but really are tr ue treasures of our home planet.” Please click here to see to an interview from CBS National News: http://www.cbsn ews.com/video/watch/?id=4937453n In September 2009, Singer joined with Dr. Kress and Hachadourian to create a col laborative book called Botanica Magnifica: Portraits of the World’s Most Extraordi nary Flowers and Plants (Abbeville Press, September 2009).
