Photographer Joel Leivick greets visitors to an artist’s reception on Sunday for an exhibition of his photographs at M.K. Contemporary Art in downtown Santa Cruz. “F/365: A Year of Photography by Joel Leivick” features Leivick’s images taken over the past year in Northern India, Morocco, Portugal and on the dining room table of his Santa Cruz home. Leivick, whose work has been widely exhibited and collected, including at the Museum of Modern Art and the SFMOMA, served for more than 30 years at Stanford University, where he was the Robert and Ruth Halperin Professor in Photography and lea the photography program. About the work in the exhibition, Sentinel columnist Stephen Kessler wrote, ” The M.K. show chronicles this yearlong odyssey, which reveals a seasoned artist at the top of his form, a master at ease with his instrument discovering amid the ordinary the wonders hidden in plain sight.” The exhibition runs through Nov. 29 at the gallery, which is open Thursday through Sunday, noon to 5 p.m.
