Jan. 19, 2012 FORT WAYNE, Ind.—The work of local photographer Stephen Perfect will be highlighted in Lupke Gallery at the North Campus of the University of Saint Francis from Feb. 4-March 30. An opening reception will take place in the gallery on Feb. 4 from 6-9 p.m. Perfect will also present a lecture on Monday, Feb. 6 at 7:30 p.m. in the North Campus auditorium to discuss views and techniques related to the exhibition.

“Stephen Perfect: 40 Years of Photography” will be a retrospective exhibition demonstrating Perfect’s variety of photographic techniques. It will include 30 different types of photographs, from historical techniques to the newest forms of digital manipulation within the photographic medium.
