Saturn Eating His Children (After Goya)
Greg Halvorsen Schreck is an artist, a photographer, sometimes using video, always a baseball fan. Greg started making photographs when he was 16. Before the digital revolution he worked with film in the darkroom. He enjoys collaborating with others from time to time: designers, church and community groups, and with physicist Mark Woodworth on theoretical, optical possibilities. His projects are connected to his Christian faith: portraiture, landscapes, indigenous, human rights, and environmental issues, and digital experimentation. His most recent exhibition in 2023, Parkside Drive South, included photographs he made in the tunnels under Jerusalem.
Schreck has been teaching analog and digital photography, and other art classes at Wheaton College for over thirty years. His undergraduate degree is from Rochester Institute of Technology where he studied both commercial and fine art photography. Schreck completed his graduate work at New York University and the International Center of Photography. He lives in Oak Park, Illinois with his family. His favorite color is blue. He has a peculiar sense of humor. This exhibition marks his retirement from Wheaton College.
