Join us on Sept 6th at 5:30 in welcoming artist & photographer to the Rehfelds Modern family. Explore & connect as we learn more about Jim's process, inspiration, & recent journey through the Dakotas.

-About the show-
Throughout history, man, in his innate determination, has attempted to build structures that will forever stand the test of time. But invariably, what the hands of man construct, the forces of nature will slowly yet relentlessly
dismantle. However, in between these two conditions lies the fading imprint of those who built their lives and livelihoods there.

Using a vintage 4 x 5 view camera, photographer Jim Westphalen captures these fleeting moments with remarkable clarity. Westphalen invites you to step into the fading stories of the past, while considering "All That Remains".
