Major Exhibition at New Bedford Whaling Museum 2023

Major Exhibition at New Bedford Whaling Museum 2023
Beginning in May 2023 and continuing through February 19, 2024 a major solo exhibition of my "Whale Stranding Series" will be held at the New Bedford Whaling Museum in New Bedford, MA.  The work will be interspersed with objects from the museum's collection and has a 70 page illustrated catalog.   Writing in the Boston Globe vritic Mark Feeny wrote: "In 1991, Ranalli encountered a whale stranding at Wellfleet. What he saw inspired him to start making these prints. They show the black outlines of whales, in effect, stranded on the page. The images are austerely beautiful, but also surpassingly sad."
There is a beautiful illustrated catalog available from the museum, or I can send you a PDF of it.

DANIEL RANALLI: LIGHTLINES Ranalli has been exploring the potential for abstraction with photograms for nearly 50 years. Each is a darkroom experiment, made without a camera. Ranalli places an object on photosensitive paper and uses a handheld light to expose it — literally drawing with light. He achieves a silken, voluptuous tonality, creating crests and shadows, shimmers and soot. Through May 7. LaMontagne Gallery, 460 Harrison Ave. 617-487-3512, www.lamontagnegallery.com

Commissioned film for climate change conference.

Commissioned film for climate change conference.
I recently had the opportunity to collaborate with the amazing composer Lola Perrin for a commissioned short film (3.5 minutes), There Is No Substitute For Victory, for the U.K. Consulate in Boston to be part of the Climate Action New England: The Road to COP26 Conference on climate change.  We hope it will also be included in the world-wide United Nations COP26 in Glasgow this fall.  It includes work from  my series Fire & Ice (Climate Change) I hope you will take a look.
