Richard Calvo’s photographs speak peacefully through nature’s eloquent solitude. His deceptively simple black and white images belie a complexity and depth that has been deemed both romantic and abstract. Educated in journalism, Calvo first gained recognition as an Army combat photographer in Vietnam. He focuses on landscape imagery, producing crisp, luminous photos he hand-develops so each has its own personality. Winning numerous awards since the 1960s, Calvo’s expressive photos are displayed in galleries throughout the United States, Europe, Canada and Japan.
