Artisans’ Section next meeting will be Thursday Feb 11

Gary R. Tetley, AIA, architect/photographer, will present images of the architecture of Theodore C. Link at the next meeting of the Artisans' section, Thursday, Feb 11, 7:00 pm in the newly refurbished second floor Members' Gallery at the St. Louis Artists' Guild. Little has been published about Link, the designer of the St. Louis Union Station, and Tetley's interest in the architect's work dates back to 1986. Since then he has conducted interviews with Link's relatives as well as families of Link's former clients. He has set off on multiple road trips to document buildings in Mississippi and other states by St. Louis' best known historic architect.

Tetley's photographs are both historic documentation as well as fine art pieces in their own right. His architectural practice has emphasized historic preservation and he has served on the Board of Directors of the Landmarks Association of St. Louis for twenty years.

The event is free. All members of the St. Louis Artists' Guild and guests are invited to attend. For more information contact mike@michaelandersonstudio.com
