Susan Mikula Show Opens at Ferrin Gallery

Pittsfield grew into the city it once was largely on the strength of the General Electric Corporation, which dominated economic and civic life and shaped the very landscape there. Now a greatly diminished presence, and fading by the day, it seems, General Electric’s industrial sites and their surroundings are the subject of photographer Susan Mikula’s soft-edged, painterly photographs, a group she calls “American Vale.” The “creative economy” that shapes Pittsfield today is exemplified by the show of Mikula’s photographs that opened at Ferrin Gallery on Saturday, June 26.
