[1]TonyH2O Gallery and World Headquarters Opens.
Tony Ludovico, a world renowned free diving, underwater photographer, announced Sarasota, Florida as the location for his new gallery and world headquarters. In waters as deep as 10,000 feet, yet just a dozen feet below the ocean’s surface, Ludovico holds his breath for up to four minutes to capture that one moment in time when natural light and aquatic life sync into a striking image.
At the new 3,600 square foot exhibition space, more than 100 of Ludovico’s archival pigment prints on canvas and watercolor papers are on display for sale, as well as Pelagic Gear clothing featuring Tony’s popular images on board shorts and t-shirts. The gallery also features three dimensional prints on metal – an innovative new line of customizable, fully UV protected outdoor furniture, showcasing selections of his images protected with an eye-catching and weatherproof high gloss finish.
From his favorite Atlantic sailfish to Mahi Mahi and giant sea turtles, Tony’s portraits of sea life offer not only stunning detail and brilliant color, but often tell unusual stories about the unique existence of these increasingly rare creatures in the wild. While Tony has traveled to locations in over 30 countries, many of his favorite photos have been taken while free diving in the Galapagos Islands, Panama, Bahamas, Isla Mujeres, as well as the east and west coasts of Florida.
TonyH2O Gallery and offices are located at 50 North Tamiami Trail. On the corner of 1st Street and US 41, it is one block east of Ritz-Carlton Hotel. Admission is free and open to the public Wednesday – Sunday, 11 am to 8 pm, Monday – Tuesday, by appointment only. Sarasota is the fourth TonyH2O Gallery. The other galleries are in Tampa, Ocean Springs, MS and Cabo San Lucas.
