Jeff Lion Weinstock
Jeff Lion Weinstock is an award-winning television and film producer and fine art photographer. A native of Greenwich Village, his photographs pay tribute to the city, and as critic Michael Kimmelman has observed, “its secret spectacles.” Mr Weinstock earned his MFA in film from New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts in 1969. After spending several years as a still photographer for advertising agencies in New York city he began a freelance career as cinematographer/director. In 1990 he joined RHI entertainment as Vice President of in-house production working on documentary, commercial and theatrical projects that took him all over the world. He created several television series, including Adoption, and television specials like The Boys, a tribute to Laurel and Hardy. He divides his time between New York City and Springs.
“I photograph walls and urban surfaces around New York City and elsewhere. I look for shapes, patterns, colors, textures, and assemblages of elements that taken out of context suggest new compositions. Often I heighten or change the colors and play with contrast and shadows. Most of what I photographs is ephemera: things that disappear because of weather or human intervention. There's a sense of discovery when I find a hidden composition and can bring it to life. I want viewers to make their own associations with the images and read into them their own feelings and experiences. ” — JW
