Description
Photography by the late Karl P. Slingluff portrays another side of war. An avid photographer, Karl was drafted to the Korean War. This retrospective of photos shows us a glimpse of history that isn't usually seen. Karl Slingluff shot thousands of slides while in Korea, which preserved his photos making this show possible. Jonathan and Leigh Slingluff, owners of The Slingluff Gallery, have selected photos that show the talent of Karl. In Karl’s memory, The Slingluff Gallery is donating a percentage of all sales to Williamson Free School for Mechanical Trades in Media, PA, where he attended. The opening reception for this show is on December 5, 2009 from 6-9p and runs until December 27th.
