Tracking Talent: For Rebekah Jacob, There’s Joy in Discovering a Great Artist
By Nick Smith
In her King Street gallery, Jacob strives to show the full potential of photography as a fine art form. Although she also exhibits paintings and sculpted furniture, contemporary photographs are her forte. Since the gallery opened in 2007 she’s helped popularize the medium in the area, captivating collectors with distinctive Southern art.
“My greatest risks have brought me my greatest returns,” says Jacob. “A lot of people said photography wouldn’t work here. It took a long time for me to develop credibility, but once I did I think I can say that I spearheaded the photography market…”
Tim Hussey returns from hiatus with a bunch of nudes
Artist Tim Hussey appreciates moments of intimacy that happen in unexpected places, “outside all the social bullshit.” He says, “You really begin to see the beauty in people.” In his latest collection, all day rain, Hussey sought to convey the melancholy and relaxed mood between artist and model in his charcoal figure drawings.
All Day Rain: Charcoal Drawings by Tim Hussey
Working from live models, Hussey layers mediums to abstract anatomical details and convey expressive movements. Depicting twisting females bodies through frenetic line quality, the drawings convey immediacy rather than static compositions or iconic references. Rendered in his typical style of gestural lines and unexpected drips and smudges, selected drawings leave the viewer fixated on the subject matter and absorbed in the process.

Three Photographers Share their Perspective on the South
May 5, 2010
By Amy Stockwell Mercer
Richard Sexton’s subjects are chosen for their “evocation of the passage of time.” Using vivid colors, his images depict interiors of buildings with peeling paint and a bulb-less chandelier; outside, laundry is hung from the railing while antennas point in opposite directions. Evocative and haunting, Sexton’s depictions of southern architecture illuminate the passage of time and the possibility of renewal.
The Interest of Time: Richard Sexton
While he has spent the last 20 years shooting Louisiana’s historic architecture, Sexton didn’t turn his lens on the Lowcountry until last fall, when Jacob began displaying his work. “Shortly thereafter, I traveled to Cuba for the first time and shot extensively in Havana. It shares a rich history with New Orleans and Charleston as well as many cultural crosscurrents,” [Sexton] explains.

Local filmmaker Adam Boozer has Tim Hussey in his ‘Sights’
by Nick Smith, Feb 10, 2010
Charleston City Paper
When Adam Boozer approached Tim Hussey about profiling him in a short documentary, Hussey wasn’t expecting much.
He knew that Boozer was an accomplished creative director who was breaking away from commercial work, and wanted to do more personal projects. But he thought the biographical film Running by Sight would be a sweet little spot by a local guy.
“He showed me a teaser after the first day,” says Hussey. “I said, ‘Wow, I had no idea it was going to be this beautiful.’”
