From Dusk to Dawn explores the quiet, transformative hours between sunset and sunrise—when familiar places become mysterious, colors deepen, and the world settles into a different rhythm.
Featuring work by Dan Graziano, Robyn Burckhardt, Whitney Babin, Dan Henry, and emerging artist Allie Bretz, the exhibition captures the beauty, atmosphere, and emotion found in these in-between moments. Through a range of perspectives and subjects, the artists explore scenes illuminated by fading sunlight, moonlight, artificial light, and the quiet glow of dawn. The familiar is transformed, revealing new details, unexpected colors, and a sense of mystery that daylight can so easily conceal.
Dan Graziano: Dan Graziano is an award winning, nationally exhibited artist whose paintings capture the hidden beauty found in the unexpected places and fleeting moments of everyday life. Incorporating dramatic light, shadow, color and perspective, his painterly compositions feature a diversity of subjects - from a simple still life to rugged coastlines, the dynamic activity of urban life, small rural towns and forgotten roadside relics. In recent years, his paintings have included a focus on café culture - busy bartenders, waiters, chefs and all its lively inhabitants. His work has been featured in numerous art publications and is in the collections of private and corporate collectors throughout the world.
Robyn Burckhardt: For over five decades, Robyn has devoted her life to art—a lifelong exploration of light, movement, and memory. Working in an impressionistic style, she seeks to capture not only the scene before her, but the feeling it evokes. Much of Robyn’s inspiration comes from the ever-changing waters and skies of the Chesapeake Bay, where years of sailing have given her an intimate view of its shifting moods—from red and pink dawns to windswept afternoons. Her paintings focus less on precise realism and more on the fleeting interplay of light, reflection, sky, and water. Each painting reflects a moment in nature and a piece of Robin’s lifelong creative journey, celebrating the quiet beauty and emotional resonance of the places that have shaped her life.
Whitney Babin: Whitney’s work explores the world around her through a personal lens, drawing inspiration from her experiences living in Philadelphia and Lancaster. Her fascination with urban environments has evolved into a particular interest in cityscapes at night, where light, motion, and color transform the familiar. For Whitney, the city comes alive after dark. Buildings become silhouettes, lights blur into color, and the energy of the streets creates an ever-changing landscape. Through her paintings and drawings, Whitney invites viewers to experience the city through her eyes—capturing fleeting glimpses of light, darkness, and motion while leaving room for their own interpretation.
Dan Henry: Dan Henry is a New York-based photographer, writer, and artist whose work explores the relationship between people, place, light, and fleeting moments. Working across portraiture, music, street photography, and architecture, he captures not just what is in front of the lens, but the atmosphere and emotion that give a place its character. New York City is a constant source of inspiration, with its architecture, people, contradictions, and ever-changing light. Music—particularly jazz and hip-hop—also influences his approach, shaping his attention to rhythm, movement, improvisation, and the space between moments.
From the final glow of sunset to the first light of a new morning, From Dusk to Dawn invites viewers to slow down and experience the beauty of a world in transition. It is a celebration of the changing light and the quiet, often overlooked moments that unfold when one day gently gives way to the next.
