Ken Light: Coal Hollow
Aug. 31 - Oct. 29, 2006

Photographs by Ken Light
Oral Histories by Melanie Light

For three years Ken Light photographed the death of the coal industry and its culture in the struggling mining communities and former coal company towns of West Virginia. Extreme poverty, welfare dependence, major diseases like "black lung"; a sense of hopelessness about lost jobs and lost heritage is haunting the country's most impoverished state.

Looking Back from Ground Zero: Images from the Brooklyn Museum Collection On View
Aug. 30, 2006 - Jan. 7, 2007

Commemorating the fifth anniversary of the September 11, 2001 attack on the World Trade Center, Looking Back from Ground Zero: Images from the Brooklyn Museum Collection will be on view August 30, 2006 through January 7, 2007. Drawn from the Museum’s collections, it includes photographs, paintings, drawings, books, and prints. Ranging from 19th-century vintage photographs to contemporary works, the exhibition focuses on the lower Manhattan area around the World Trade Center before, during, and after the attack. In addition to historical maps of Manhattan, the exhibition includes several books by artists reflecting issues related to September 11th. The books on view, including the work of Art Spiegelman and Mimi Gross, offer a variety of artists’ personal responses to the 9/11 event and its global aftereffect.

Among the works on view are photographs by the photojournalist G.N. Miller, who covered the collapse of the towers for the New York Post. In contrast to Miller’s tragic photographs, images by Berenice Abbot, Consuelo Kanaga, and Dr. Drahomir Ruzicka capture New York City’s urban progress during the 1930s, 40s, and 50s. Gerard Maynard presents an optimistic reconstruction of the World Trade Center site in his photograph WTC 11.11.03.

Tim Davis: My Life in Politics

"Modeled after Walker Evans' American Photographs, which found political meaning in all areas of the Depression scene, from signage to portraiture, architectural elevations and interiors, My Life in Politics has a wide photographic scope. In many ways it is an effort to raise questions about the nature of the photographic project. It incorporartes element of other projects I have done: a concern for the cultural meaning of light, a passion for thorough, observant image-maing, and a way to see the world with an eye that is both celebratory and critical."

Susan kae Grant: Night Journey
Aug. 11 - Sept. 4, 2006

Night Journey represents a significant collaboration of artistic and scientific inquiry into the nature of dreams, memory and the unconscious. The work is composed of a series of intriguingly haunting large-scale images that re-create the fragmented and multi-sensorial experience of dreaming.

To produce the work, Susan Grant collaborated with sleep researchers at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas. To access unconscious visual memory, Grant used herself as subject and was digitally monitored and awakened from REM sleep and then interrogated by trained technicians. Grant used the tapes of these narrative interviews as inspiration to create the imagery for the series.

The shadow gestures depicted in the images suggest a fragmented narrative as they shift in and out of focus, signifying the impermanent quality of the dream state. To create the gestures and narratives inspired by the dream recordings, Grant photographs shadows of models and props in her studio.

The Night Journey series examines the perceptual and psychological aspects of the dream state and provides a pictorial access to the unconscious. It raises universal questions among viewers and re-creates an unexplainable experience all humans share.

Keith Johnson
New Work 2000-2005: Water/Garden & Ground/Cover
Aug. 10 - Sept. 30, 2006

Panopticon Gallery is pleased to announce the upcoming exhibition of photographer Keith Johnson. This exhibition will consist of two distinct portfolios: Water/Garden and Ground/Cover. Water/Garden features the partially abstracted details of various aquatic environments in which the layered images are often as much about his personal interaction with the landscape during the creation of the image as they are about capturing variations in texture and movement. Ground/Cover presents the often times quirky personal imprint that individuals make on their pieces of the American landscape.

Lew Dakan: Capturing His Light: 87 Years of Photography by Lew Dakan 1913-2000
July 28, 2006 - Sept. 10, 2006

The show will feature early works by Colorado photographer Lew Dakan, specifically work of the western U.S.--the area that became Rocky Mountain National Park, as well as early 20th century photographs of New Mexico, Arizona, and California.

Lew Dakan took photographs from 1913, at the age of 6, to one week prior to his death in September 2000. In that ensuing 87 years, Lew took some 35,000 black and white images, a majority of which are large format, over 25,000 color negative images, and some 20,000 Kodachrome and large format transparencies.

Benjamin Stern - Topologies
July 28 - Sept 3, 2006

This body of work explores the landscape through the events that have occurred there. These topological studies are achieved by constructing a framework over the site and photographing in a detailed grid pattern. A passing of time is evident as the hundreds of photographs are fused into a single image as the finished piece.

Re-presenting historical footage and photos, including the last minutes of the televised OJ Simpson trial, this exhibition will investigate photography's unsettled relationship to its framing devices--to the lens, the viewer, art and history.

Luz Maria Sanchez, Gerda Steiner & Jorge Lenzlinger, Do-Ho Suh : International Artist-in-Residence Program: New Works 06.2
July 6, 2006 - Sept. 10, 2006

Mexican born Luz Maria Sanchez's immersive sound and video environments challenge physical and emotional response to sonic data through dislocation, duration, and repetition. Minimal in presentation, her works isolate and amplify politically charged frequencies such as Arab radio broadcasts and the U.S./Mexico border soundscape to abstract and re-map cultural space. At Artpace, Sanchez will continue to investigate site and language with a project that reflects on current immigration debates.

Since 1997 Gerda Steiner & Jorg Lenzlinger have collaborated to produce interactive installations that tangle cultivation with chaos, the synthetic with the natural, and the fantastic with the domestic. Twigs, cables, blossoms and found objects fuse to create room-encompassing webs, falling gardens, and crystalline pools. For their Artpace residency, Steiner & Lenzlinger are growing an allegorical grotto for the city's namesake, Saint Anthony of Padua, patron saint of lost things.

Korean-born Do-Ho Suh's large-scale sculptures explore the individual's connection to the spatial, cultural, and global whole. Examining relationships between personal and collective identity, past projects have amassed military dog tags into a warrior's gown and refashioned the artist's home in suspended fabric. At Artpace, Suh will further interwine autobiography and architecture, modeling a process-filled narrative of his journey from Korea to the U.S. and his continued negotiation of these two worlds.

Art Whipped: 2005 - 2006 School of Visual Arts Studio MFA Graduates
July 22 - August 26, 2006

The University of North Texas has recently unleashed a powerful group of young artists. The Masters of Fine Arts degree in Studio Arts is the completion of a three-year program for artists seeking a terminal degree in the studio arts.  Art Whipped features the artwork of December 2005 and Spring 2006 MFA graduates John Adelman, Rachel Black, Chris Boughton, Jim Burton, Beau Comeaux, Jessica Cook, Jacqueline Falcon, Garland Fielder, Kate Fisher, Trish Igo, Natalie Macellaio, Jeff Mueller, Jill O'Brien, Diane Simon, Katie Snow, and Brian Spolans.  The artists together represent the fields of ceramics, drawing and painting, metalsmithing and jewelry, photography, printmaking, and sculpture.  From crockery to zombies, the selected works make a diverse but fascinating testament to the intense dedication and discipline of this collection of artists. 

The School of Visual Arts at the University of North Texas is the largest and most comprehensive visual arts program in the Southwest and one of the largest in the nation.  Graduates of the school have shown in the Whitney Biennual and in exhibitions nationally.  Graduate students devote endless industrious hours to their refinement of skill, craftsmanship, and concepts.  Though each artist works with a unique set of skills and inspirations, the group flourishes because of the exchange of intense criticism and enthusiasm.  Masters of Fine Arts graduates from the 05-06 academic year come together now for one final discourse, revealing what the three-year regimen has released into the public realm of the art world.  UNT invites you to witness this milestone moment in the careers of these emerging artists.

On 29 June the first part of the Chronicles Of the Everyday exhibition project, offering the best out of the post-Perestroika documentary photography, has been presented in Gostiny Dvor museum and exhibition complex in Archangelsk. The Chronicles present works of remarkable documentary photographers of the post-Soviet area, which have already become classics of the international photojournalism.

Photographers: Valery Shekoldin, Valery Nistratov, Oleg Klimov, Victor Suvorov, Ludmila Zinchenko, Alnis Stakle

While witnessing realities and emotions of the époque, these photographers have selected photos that are evidence of completely different conditions. These are images of the everyday. It is petty detail of our routine life, fleeting smiles, simple human joys that we recall any times passed for. This is a collection of documented changes in the unchanging Russian reality – bright, vivid, heart-felt testimony for our everyday life.

In 2006 this exhibition will also be held in the Tumen regional Art Museum, “Vyhod” Media-centre (Petrozavodsk), Krasnoyarsk Museum Centre.

Only Skin Deep

Sara Rytteke: You're Such a Doll
Ron Gershman: The Secret Lives of Mannequins

This two person show examins the media's depiction of "the model" and how it influences women's self-perception. Giving a male and female perspective, both artists play with the concept of beauty, glamour, and the signals females recieve on a daily basis from youth on.

Gershman's mannequins elicit a double-take, as their life-like resemblance reinforces the facade of perfection. A closer examination challenges our perception further when secretes are revealed to us through caption that accompany the photos.

Rytteke focuses on the toys of girls' pastimes, such as paper dolls. By reinventing herself in the apparel of women throughout the decades, she calls attention to the extent that clothing and fashion sway female attitudes at an early age.

Fiftteen years ago, Richard Newman incoroporated photography into his daily routine and has never looked back. In this exhibition, A 12-Year Diary in Photographs, Newman shares with the viewer a day's worth of diverse entries from his visual journal in the form of black and white silver gelatin prints. Some of his images make visual puns, others rely on the written words in signs and posters to make their point. "This diary has been a reflection of my life and I find great comfort in returning to the pictures and emotions that caused me to create it," said Newman. "Revisiting places and having a time line to my life helps me remember that the path is peace."

Jerome Liebling: jerome liebling + selected photographs
April 8 - June 11, 2006

Since his early work in the mid-1940s, Jerome Liebling has established himself as a master photographer and an inspiring teacher. During nearly twenty years in Minnesota (1949-1969) Liebling influenced a generation of artists and effectively introduced contemporary photography to the state. This survey of his photography, selected by Liebling in consultation with MCP Artistic Director George Slade and including know and unseen works from the course of his career, reflects his deep, humanistic concerns for individuals passing through everyday life. From politicians to South St. Paul stockyard workers, from camp counselors to handball players, from apple orchards to morgues, Liebling's photographs confront and engag profoundly simple truths of our existence.

Judy Natal: American Alphabet. Photographs and Maps

American Alphabet is the result of Natal's six months of continuous travel with her dog Sparky, from February to August, 2004, ending at the geographic heart of the United States. Firmly rooted in the traditions established by the itinerant photographers of the 19th century, she pays tribute to the enormous imprints on contemporary photographic practice by Robert Frank, Gary Winogrand, Walker Evan, etc. Edited from over 6,700 photographs and over 50 "maps" she created from every technology available from paint to the World Wide Web, Natal relishes photography's ability to create all things equal. She untangles the fabric of America as she visually explores ideas and issues of democracy and equality in the midst of the Kerry/Bush Presidential elections of 2004.

Natal received her MFA from Rochester Institute of Technology in Rochester, New York. She teaches in the Photography Department at Columbia College, Chicago. She has received numerous grants, fellowships and residencies, and has conducted workshops throughout the United States, Canada, Europe and Brazil.

SANT KHALSA: PAVING PARADISE - Stories from the Santa Ana Watershed
April 6 -May 13, 2006

Sant Khalsa has been photographing the 96-mile-long Santa Ana River and its expansive watershed for nearly three decades. Her images create a contemplative space where one can sense the subtle and profound connections between themselves, the natural world and our constructed settings. These disquieting photographs address complex environmental and societal issues and reflect upon various ideas concerning our relationship with the river -- as place of community, economic resource, recreational site, natural habitat, sanctuary, and both source of life and destruction.

"Paving Paradise" refers to the current state of the river and the conflicting terrain of natural riverbeds and dams, flood plains and tract home communities, riparian wetlands and concrete channels. Khalsa was first drawn to the Santa Ana because of its natural beauty -- the vast open landscape, the starkness of its often dry riverbeds and the power of its occasional rushing waters. The river remains her source for creative inspiration as she depicts the critical role it plays within the region, her home since 1975.

Arthur Tress: Vintage
April 6 - May 13, 2006

ClampArt is pleased to announce "Arthur Tress: Vintage" - a selection of rare vintage prints from the artist's collection. Since he first began shooting in the mid-1960s, Arthur Tress has been meticulously retaining copies of his best prints. Carefully stored away in boxes in his studio, these photographs have been seen by only a very select group of the artist's personal acquaintances over the years. The prints in Tress' possession span every phase of his dynamic career, and include exceptional examples of both published and previously unknown material. Now well into his sixties, Arthur Tress is not only allowing the exhibition but also the sale of his treasured vintage photographs. It is an honor for ClampArt to have the opportunity to present this material to the public.
