Dewitt is an extraordinary photographer. Twenty years with National Geographic, two Academy Award nominations, ten books, countless awards and a Tedx talk with over a million views, he has a stellar reputation.
But it is unique vision that has made him an integral part of Viewpoints Gallery since 2006. His work is both intimate and cosmic, lyrical and awe inspiring. He is always pushing the edges of photographic art.

“My images attempt to illuminate not just the beauty of these islands, but also their spirit. The images are rendered with a number of photographic techniques, some more literal, some more painterly, all striving to capture not the specific image in front of the lens, but the essence beneath it. Not this hula, but all hula. Not this wave, but all waves. Not this moment, but TIME SUSPENDED.”

Gallery interior at Viewpoints Gallery with stone figure sculptures and paintings by Maui artists

In 1989, The Maui News called Viewpoints Gallery “a jewel in the art scene”; decades later Viewpoints has become one of the finest art galleries in the State. The discerning art lover will discover representational and contemporary works in a variety of media by Maui’s finest artists and artisans.

Viewpoints Gallery has been driven by a keen sense of community, providing support and paying respect to the culture, the environment, and the arts through events and exhibits. The gallery sets itself apart in action and deed, and has been instrumental in establishing programs that reflect living art history here in the islands.

On Baldwin Avenue, near the lower end of the commercial district, is the establishment that launched the town’s reputation as an art colony – The Courtyard in Makawao. In the early 1900s, this was the site of a movie theater where, on Saturday nights, cowpokes from nearby ranches would come to see silent pictures starring Tom Mix and William S. Hart.

Pictures of a different sort are on view today. You’ll find Viewpoints Gallery – a favorite for the art aficionado in search of top-quality local art.

"Imagine a place you never tire of visiting because of the beauty, the exquisite quality, indeed the joy to discover a new way to look at the world - that's what Viewpoints does for me."

Inquiries are Most Welcome
