The unofficial start of the East Nashville Tomato Art Festival is back. Photomato 2009 is opening at the Walnut Exchange’s exchange gallery. With photographs of and inspired by tomatoes, Photomato is a truly unique photography experience.
Featuring photomatographers Barry A. Noland, Rusty Bright, Laura Carpenter, Kay Ramming, Zak Willis, Martha Smith, Larry Merin and Wendy Whittemore of the Society of Artistic Photographers (SNAP). The titles of the pieces give a glimpse to the whimsical nature of Tomato Photography: “When Good Tomatoes Go Bad,” and “Recession Tomato,” and “So Hot You Could Fry” are just a few of many tomatographs.
exchange gallery is located behind Marche Restaurant in the Walnut Exchange complex in East Nashville. Marche restaurant will be featuring a menu of tomatoes and tomato wine the night of the opening. During Saturday’s Art Fest, the gallery will be open along with the restaurants of the Walnut Exchange, Magnolia Day Spa (giving tomato red pedicures) and Kustom Thrills Tattoo with Tat-matoes temporary tattoos. Come and join the festivities…retreat to the Walnut Exchange!
