    Botanica: Scanography by Marty Klein October 24–December 15, 2009 Hunnewell Building Lecture Hall Arnold Arboretum. Reception with the artist Saturday, October 24, 1:00–3:00pm. Artist talk Thursday, November 19, 6:30pm–8:00pm. Marty Klein is fueled by an insatiable and wide-ranging curiosity to see familiar natural forms in new and refreshing ways. Using a flatbed scanner as a camera, Marty Klein captures images of plants and other natural objects with incredible depth and contrast. The images are very different from traditional photographs, yet remain close in spirit, imbued with an arresting vitality. Several new works in this show use specimens gathered by special permission from the Arboretum’s living collections. Marty Klein holds a BA and a Master of Regional Planning from the University of Massachusetts, and over the years has worked as an artist, photographer, blacksmith, and land protection activist.
