James Baldwin, Saint-Paul-de-Vence, 1979 (Photograph by Dmitri Kasterine)

Reception Planned By Renowned Portrait Photographer Kasterine

RICHFIELD SPRINGS—Dmitri Kasterine, who has traveled the world as a portrait photographer for decades, and his wife, Caroline, will host a gallery reception at their home on November 30 from 6-8 p.m. Kasterine has a large portfolio of photographs of—in his words—“prominent members of the mid-20th century cultural world.” A sampling of these include Samuel Beckett, Johnny Cash, James Baldwin, Mick Jagger, Rudolf Nureyev and HM Queen Elizabeth II.

A special feature of the upcoming reception will be a short talk by the photographer about some of his subjects and their reactions to his photographing them. In addition to refreshments for all guests, high-quality prints of much of Dmitri’s work will be for sale at discounted prices. Copies of his books, “Newburgh: Portrait of a City” and “Who How When Where,” will be available for purchase, along with his hand printed mini-book.

For those unable to attend the reception, the gallery will remain open by appointment in December and January. Dmitri Kasterine Photography is located at 1441 County Highway 23, Richfield Springs. E-mail inquiries can be directed to dmitri@kasterine.com.
