Richard Loftis is one of the Midwest’s most respected photographers. Since 1981 he has had 16 one-person shows and 20 invitational exhibitions of his photography. His work is contained in numerous private and public collections throughout the country including the National Museum of Art in Washington, D.C. He has been an instructor and artist-in-residence at the Kansas City Art Institute. The areas of concentration are extremely varied and include: China, the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, Vietnam, Aircraft, Bogota, Kansas City stockyards, Yucatan, as well as landscapes, people and portraits, the human form, and images in nature. This current series of work focuses Loftis' interest on the inner design of aircraft engines. Through use and history these cold mechanical machines take on organic and other worldly characteristics.
