In 2005, Peter Veritas from New York
City, NY, donated this collection of 8 silver gelatin prints by Tom
Baril, in honor of his father Peter J. Veritas, '57.
These beautiful photographs measure 15 by 19 inches and are
exhibited on the main floor of the Douglas and Judith Krupp Library of
Bryant University until the end of 2006.
Tom Baril was born in Connecticut in 1952 and graduated from New
York's School of Visual Arts in 1980 with a BA in photography, after
which he served as Robert Mapplethorpe's exclusive print maker. Since
then Tom Baril has distanced himself from the Mapplethorpe work and has
enjoyed a solo career by bringing to us something uniquely his own -
stunning imagery from both behind the camera and out of the
darkroom. For more information, see Tom Baril's website: www.tombaril.net.
