Internationally published and highly collected, Dwight Hiscano has been creating images of the natural landscape for nearly thirty years. Having spent much of his childhood exploring the rugged hills near his family’s home in the New Jersey Highlands, Dwight’s love for the outdoors has led to a passionate effort to capture the North American wilderness on film while bringing new perspectives to the art of landscape photography.
An avid outdoorsman and trustee for the NJ chapter of the Nature Conservancy, Dwight Hiscano considers landscape photography a valuable tool with which to promote conservation. He has spent countless hours volunteering his skills for conservation organizations, and often donates his images toward efforts to preserve the scenes depicted in his New Jersey photographs. His book, New Jersey, the Natural State, a full color coffee table style book published by Rutgers University Press featuring over 100 full color photographs, depicts some of the more natural settings of a heavily urbanized, yet still surprisingly beautiful state. This project also focuses attention on the urgent need to preserve what remains of New Jersey’s landscape for future generations.
Dwight’s photographs are held in numerous corporate collections, including those at AT&T, Atlanticare, Johnson & Johnson, Merck & Co., Merrill Lynch, Morristown Memorial Hospital, Oppenheimer, and Pfizer. Photographs are also held in the collections of former New Jersey Governor and EPA administrator Christine Todd Whitman, former acting governor Donald DiFranscesco, and Congressman Jim Saxton, as well as in private collections throughout the United States. One of Dwight’s images received “Highly Honored” in the Art in Nature category of the annual Nature's Best International Photography Awards competition, and was chosen for an exhibit at the Smithsonian.
Dwight Hiscano's photographs have appeared in The New York Times, Outdoor Photographer, Photographic Magazine, Nature’s Best, and Nature Conservancy Magazine, and have been featured promiently on websites, in books, posters, calendars, note cards, and annual reports both here and abroad. His work has been featured in solo exhibits at the Noyes Museum of Art, and the Liberty Science Center, and in many group and solo shows throughout the New York area. He has also led numerous photography workshops, lectures and presentations, and was the featured speaker at the Garden Club of America’s Annual Horticultural Conference.
Dwight’s photographs are created using 6x7 and 645 film cameras, and, more recently, a 24 megapixel digital SLR. His colorful, highly detailed images are printed using only archival quality materials. They range in size from 11X14 to 40x50 inches unframed. Each photograph is limited to an edition of no more than 50 prints. Images from throughout North America are available. |
