Loss Of Freedom Giclée on Hahnemühle Photo Rag Throughout the world there are many places where acts of war and violence are a common sight. A tank rolling down the street is a normal occurrence. Americans have the luxury of pretending these places merely exist on our televisions. The artist forces us to experience the terror of war by placing elements of panic and destruction into our own neighborhood. The work was inspired by images of the aftermath of the Boston Marathon bombings. The artist asks, in an age of greed, terrorism, and moral ignorance, will we be able to prevent a complete and total loss of freedom?

Christopher Ruane is a composite artist and photographer from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania who specializes in massive digital photomontages. Sometimes with thousands of individual layers, each photographed and created separately, his work often focuses on the spiritual and contrasting human condition. Influences for his images come from nature, personal experiences, art history, and current events. The complexities of each piece are made to be studied to reveal an inner meaning and viewpoint about our culture, the current climate of the world and what we believe to be the truth of our origins. His work has been shown in museums locally and galleries across the United States. In 2012, his image, The Good Samaritan, was the winner of The National Catholic Arts Exhibition at St Vincent College and since has earned an honorable mention and peoples choice award in the Biannual Exhibition . His work has been chosen for exhibitions by notable jurors from MOCA Cleveland, Andy Warhol Museum, Brooklyn Museum, and Carnegie Museum of Art. Christopher has also received awards from notable Curators such as Linda Benadict Jones and Art Historian John T. Spike, past Director of the Florence Biennale. In the last few years, Christopher and his work were featured in Camera Obscura Journal, Whirl Magazine, The Catholic Accent, The Pittsburgh Post Gazette, The National Catholic News Service, Religion News Service, The Washington Post, and The Huffington Post. In 2016 he was awarded The Charles Dodgson Black & White Award at The Berlin Photo Bienniale and also received awards in PX3 Prix De La Photographie Paris and The International Photography Awards.
