Most prominent are the international street scenes by Robert Lebron and the scenery “Americana” of Sandi Lebron. Phillips Gallery of Fine Art on 6th between Lincoln and Dolores, holds the country’s most extensive collection of original paintings by 84-year-old renowned British master, Harold Hitchcock. (Read more about Hitchcock next month in Art & Antiques.) Together with Carmel’s Mudzimu Gallery, Phillips Gallery is showcasing the original stone sculpture of internationally acclaimed artist Gedion Nyanhongo of Zimbabwe. Another represented artist, Andrew T. Jackson, is called the “most intriguing local artist of 1999” for his surrealistic work. The gallery also presents the allegorical surrealism of Jeff Faust, the landscapes in oil by Greg Cartmell, Barbera and Marcel Favreau, as well as the watercolor images of Isobel George and Ruth Basler Burr.

A tour of Carmel art wouldn’t be complete without a visit to the Weston Gallery of fine-art photography on 6th between Dolores and Lincoln. Emphasizing the finest masterworks of 19th- and 20th-century photography, the inventory chronicles the photographic life of the legendary Weston generations.

The gallery is the exclusive representative of Ansel Adams Museum Sets and Yousef Karsh Modern & Vintage Works and portfolios.
