About

Philip Schein, MD is a medical oncologist and pharmacologist who has had a long standing interest in photography, begining in earnest  when his young family was growing up while we worked at the National Cancer Institute.  His compositional interests include abstraction, reflection and landscapes. He has won several photography contests and awards, and has exhibited in solo shows in Philadelphia and the Philadelphia region, and has participated in exhibitions in Florida. 

Artist’s Statement:  “Photography has provided the opportunity to combine two of my lifelong interests – artistic composition and the challenges of an ever-evolving technology, in this case digital photography.  While photography has many pedestiran uses for which objective, unedited presentations are a requirement, my interests reside in the art form where the limits are defined by the creativity of the artist. My goals are those that can be found in all expressions of art – a personal message that provokes thought, reflection and an emotional response for the viewer. Hopefully I have achieved some element of success in this mission with the images selected for this website.”
