Artists’ Corner With The ArtsEye Gallery

The ArtsEye Gallery is based in Tucson, Arizona, USA. It is in a unique position, as it is not only a gallery but also their main business is Photographic Works. ArtsEye specialize in Fine Art reproduction and film processing/photo enlargements.

ArtsEye has a simple premise: a physical gallery space and an online presence that  is inviting and friendly – a collaboration between ArtsEye, the artist, and those who enjoy art. We want to create something different, a new experience. We work with emerging artists and those who are
established, exhibiting photography, works on paper, and canvas.

Philosophy

Photographic Works has a full framing department in-house. All of the staff are photographers in their personal lives and they openly admit that they love photography and that’s why they choose to work with it every day.

Attributes

Photographic Works is a full service photography and fine art lab offering film processing, printmaking, image captures, retouching and finishing services. Their Photoshop retail store carries a full line of black and white darkroom supplies, digital printing materials, archival storage systems, toy cameras, cool photo bags and neat tools for having fun with photography.

Their gallery, ArtsEye is an extension of their passion and commitment to their community,  showcasing Tucson artists year round whose creative vision speaks to the heart of why they do what they do.  Perhaps their most important attribute is their facility to have all the tools on site to create an entire exhibition from start to finish.

Curious Camera, their official photo play ground, hosts an annual international pinhole and plastic camera competition, has built the worlds largest Holga camera and features fun workshops on analog photography.
