  • Graciela Iturbide's Private Universe
    Graciela Iturbide’s Private Universe September 24th, 2010 by Cassandra McGrath An ostrich stares indignantly at me, hip jutting out as though I had ditched its Thanksgiving dinner. “What are you doing in this gallery staring at me?” it seems to say. “Why didn’t you bring the cranberry sauce?” Like an exaggerated cartoon version of an image in National Geographic, the ostrich is one of the more vivid subjects in Graciela Iturbide’s most recent exhibition, Graciela Iturbide: asor, ending this week in the Rose Gallery at the Santa Monica Museum of Art. Iturbide once said, “While using my camera I am, above all, an actress participating in the scene taking place at the moment, and the other actors know what role I play.” In “asor,” taken straight from her personal archive, Iturbide creates a fantasy world that explores the terror and joy of childhood solitude. Inspired by her grandchildren and Alice in Wonderland, Iturbide photographed the Southern United States, Italy, India and Mexico, using snippets from each location but nothing identifiable from any of them. Instead, she crafted a new narrative that makes the fantastic pedestrian and the pedestrian fantastic. Clocks and abandoned buildings take on the significance of mythical creatures. In one pair of photographs, two blank eyeholes carved out of rocks peer out at the viewer, observing and saying nothing. Birds gather ominously in the sky like locusts, and in one arresting image, sunflowers are backlit and shot from below, drooping and spiky as Venus Fly Traps. Iturbide plays with perspective: A giant plaster head sits next to a parked car, disorienting any sense of scale.

  • Breaching Walls (Real and Imaginary): Arte Hispano-Americano [Latin American Art], 1000 C.E
    Breaching Walls (Real and Imaginary): Arte Hispano-Americano [Latin American Art], 1000 C.E. to 2017 C.E. A Guide to the Exhibition by Noel Dorsey Vernon A STUDENT EXHIBITION GUIDE FOR EDUCATIONAL USE ONLY -- 11/12/17 (NDV) Author's Note This guide supports the art exhibition “Breaching Walls (Real and Imaginary)” held at Skyline Community College in November 2017, celebrating Latino Heritage Month. Many thanks to the administration and faculty of Skyline College for hosting and supporting it. Many thanks also to Arthur Takayama, Lorenzo Hernández and Cristina Hernández for organizing this exhibition. I am indebted to all of them for agreeing that a gallery guide might be of use and permitting me to author it. Thanks also to Professor Carlos Ugalde for taking the time to author "Comments on Art by Professor Carlos Ugalde for Lorenzo Hernández " which is included in this Exhibition Guide. My own background in Mexican and Hispano-American history is far less than was necessary to take on this project, so I spent a lot of time reading, looking at art, listening and asking questions. I had studied the history of Mexico many years ago in Guanajuato, Mexico, although my greatest interest was in Mexico's Pre-Columbian urban heritage. As a professor and Associate Dean of Environmental Design (now a Professor Emerita) in the CSU system, I was able to incorporate some this information into my landscape architecture history courses. I also am aware that much that has been written in English about Mexican art history was written by non-Mexicans. This has resulted in the misunderstanding that Mexican art history has been driven almost entirely by Western European art movements, styles and artists.

  • Street Photography – for the Purist Words & Photos by Chris Weeks
    Street Photography – For the Purist words & photos by Chris Weeks forwards with photos by: Severin Koller – Austria Michael Kaiser – Germany Matthew Craig – United States of America Rainer Pawellek – France Deborah Delasio – Italy Errol Lyons-Rainey – United Kingdom Darren Abate – United States of America Massimiliano Mortillaro – Czech Republic Bernhard Wolf – Austria Patrick Kahn – Los Angeles/Paris Forward by Severin Koller – Austria (edited by Chris Weeks) When I started photography about two years ago I had a compact digital camera with no mentionable resolution. I soon started to focus on structures and abstract photography because anything else wasn't possible due to the low quality. It soon led me to architectural photography, which turned out to be the subject and style I master the best. It also makes my living at the moment. With that small digital camera, street photography were just ridiculous attempts that never turned out as they should have. As I investigated new photographic gear about a year ago, I still had the opinion that digital is the way … the future. Last summer I got the Canon Eos 1Ds Mark II, which I use for my commissions and some conceptual and architectural work. I used it for personal work sometimes as well. The moments you want to make should be personal, intimate, close and unobtrusive photos … you can throw these 7000 bucks in the rubbish bin !! My point is … I fell in love with street photography the moment I started analogue photography. I never took portraits. I never did journalism. I never dared to do street photography the classic way.

  • Gian Paolo Barbieri? Perché, Mai? Al Culmine Di Un Anno Di Appuntamenti Fotografici Organizzati, Allestiti E Svolti Sotto L’Egida Di Mat2019
    In forma di prologo Raramente, mi esprimo in prima persona, preferendo frequentare la forma impersonale del “noi”. Non lo faccio per evitare eventuali responsabilità di e dalla scrittura, ma per una malaugurata assenza di autoreferenzialità (e, forse, di terribile timidezza), che antepone l’argomento affrontato e trattato a qualsivoglia personalismo, o presunto tale. Però, qui e oggi, per mille e mille motivi, certamente tutti leciti e plausibili, scrivo in prima persona singolare: “io”, invece di “noi”. Lo faccio in triplice rispetto; in questo ordine, in questa graduatoria: anzitutto, verso il pubblico, referente principale, che ha così modo di percepire l’intimità delle considerazioni espresse; quindi, per l’autore Gian Paolo Barbieri, affinché sappia a chi riferirsi individualmente, magari sdegnandosi senza sbagliare mira; infine, di coloro con i quali ho condiviso e condivido il cammino di Coscienza dell’Uomo, all’interno del cui contenitore viene allestita l’attuale selezione Tahiti Tattoos, che sono all’oscuro del contenuto che sto per esprimere, e dal quale hanno così modo di prendere probabili distanze. M.R. Gian Paolo Barbieri? Perché, mai? Al culmine di un anno di appuntamenti fotografici organizzati, allestiti e svolti sotto l’egida di Mat2019. Coscienza dell’Uomo potrebbe anche risultare chiaro, perché chiarito a lettere schiette e sincere, oltre che energiche, determinate ed evidenti. Perfino, coraggiose.Coscienza dell’Uomo ha scartato a lato convenzioni e retoriche che, almeno qui da noi, in Italia, nel nostro paese, inquinano la riflessione sulla Fotografia, qualsiasi cosa questa significhi per ciascuno di noi. Dunque, Coscienza in quanto tale e non dipendente dall’esuberante apparenza dei soggetti avvicinati e fotografati.

    ROSEGALLERY is delighted to present Hay Tiempo, an exhibition of photographs by Graciela Iturbide. The exhibition opens the 23rd of February and will be on view until the 20th of April, 2019. Hay Tiempo is in on view alongside the landmark exhibition ‘Graciela Iturbide: Mexico’ at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Graciela Iturbide, celebrated as one of Mexico’s most prolific and distinguished photographers, observes with patience and exhibits her world with beauty, serenity and dignity. Born into a conservative family in Mexico City, Iturbide decided to create her own path, leaving a traditional domestic life to pursue the arts. During her studies in cinematography at the Universidad Nacional Autonama de Mexico, she became the achichinle (the assistant) to Manuel Alvarez Bravo, the distinguished Mexican photographer who later became a lifelong mentor to Iturbide. In their time together, Álvarez Bravo constantly reminded Iturbide to pause and observe, asserting Hay Tiempo (There is Time). This patience to allow the moment to unravel and reveal itself echoed the notion of a Mexican poetic tempo, which is present throughout Mexican art, literature and life. Iturbide came to understand and employ her mentor’s slow, observational process as she photographed many cultures and spheres. Although Iturbide has photographed all over the world, she is widely known for the photographs she has taken in her native Mexico. While many twentieth-century photographers had documented Mexico through an outsider’s lens, shining light on poverty and politics in a neocolonial gesture, Iturbide reached beyond the document, photographing the poetic essence embedded in each moment. With Hay Tiempo in mind, she evokes a lyricism in her careful observations.

    At this time, We the People must ask ourselves one question: who are we? Although it might seem like a simple question, the answer may not come so easily. When the founding fathers penned “We the People,” they may have meant themselves, the white men in power, but We the People of today incorporates a much wider set of individuals. When We lives to juxtapose with the Other, just as it has in our current climate, photography’s unique power to democratize becomes a necessity. In our previous show HE, SHE, THEY, we explored the multifaceted ways gender, sexuality, and identity build ourselves and our surroundings. And so, expanding our notions of us, Guy Stricherz's Americans in Kodachrome 1945- 65 ROSEGALLERY presents We, a selection of photographs, paintings, and First Television, Port Byron, Illinois, 1950 prints which strive to show the encompassing sense of We through our idiosyncrasies and connections. In the process of image making, a broadening sense of ourselves has expanded over time. To capture these changes, photography has served to document where we stand together and where we fail to meet. During the 1940s, Dorothea Lange traveled throughout the United States, illuminating the image of the many Others left to the side. Not so long after Lange, Kodachrome captured the post-war America which prided itself on a sense of unity through the sought-after American Dream. The vibrant early-color Kodachrome photographs of Guy Stricherz’s collection unveils an intimate view into this period of american middle-class prosperity that many still admire with a deep sense of nostalgia.
