    WHAT IS START-UP? START UP is a television program that offers its viewers an up-close and personal look into the world of the modern American entrepreneur. As complicated as starting a business may seem, START UP attempts to demystify the process by sharing the real life experiences of average Americans who are taking control of their own destiny. With a hip, modern style and a unique approach to traditional interview-based television, START UP is a truly original show that intends to inspire, educate and entertain viewers in a way that is neither dramatized nor exaggerated. It offers a sense of integrity that the producer’s feel is missing in mainstream reality television today. Start Up Season One, sponsored by General Motors, American Express and Walsh College, began airing on September 16, 2013 with a very strong national carriage. The show is airing in over 50% of U.S. households and is expected to reach over 80% of U.S. households by January 2014. With several markets waiting to schedule the program in a prime- time position in January, the show is being very well received by PBS (PTV) Program Directors all over the country. The carriage numbers we’ve received are rare for a first season program, and we are expecting to only increase our carriage into Season 2 and 3. As we are committed to an initial 3 year broadcast contract, we will embark on production of Season 2 on February 1, 2014. We appreciate the continued support of our program and look forward to being able to provide you mass exposure both on-air and online to further the message of your high quality brand.

    ARTH7 G e n d e r , R a c e , S e x u a l i t y : E p i s o d e s i n M o d e r n i s m 1 9 0 0 - 1 9 4 5 Professor David Getsy First-year seminar, Department of Art History, Dartmouth College Winter 2003 • 10A / 10.00-11.50 Tuesday Thursday / x-hour 3.00-3.50 Wednesday office hours: 1.00-2.30 Tuesday / office: 307 Carpenter Hall c o u r s e d e s c r i p t i o n This discussion-based, writing-intensive seminar will introduce key concepts for modernism in the visual arts and will stress current critical approaches to the study of visual culture. Focusing on the development of modernism in the first half of the twentieth century in Europe and America, we will explore a series of episodes in which artists and critics engaged with questions of gender, race, sexuality, and identity. We will examine cases in which artists and critics subverted or critiqued cultural norms as well as cases in which the work of modernist artists reflected and relied upon dominant assumptions about race, sexuality, and gender. Themes studied will include: primitivism, gender performance, the politics of museum display, feminism in history and scholarship, cultural hybridity, the role of subcultures, and the politics of representation. Artists and movements discussed will include Picasso, Duchamp, Vorticism, Harlem Renaissance, Cadmus, Kahlo, Hepworth, and Surrealism. s t r u c t u r e o f t h e c o u r s e Each two-hour session will be focused primarily on discussion of images, texts, and course themes.

    laboratorio dell’immaginario issn 1826-6118 rivista elettronica http://archiviocav.unibg.it/elephant_castle 30 ANNI DI TWIN PEAKS a cura di Jacopo Bulgarini d’Elci, Jacques Dürrenmatt settembre 2020 CAV - Centro Arti Visive Università degli Studi di Bergamo LUCA MALAVASI “Do you recognize that house?” Twin Peaks: The Return as a process of image identification In the fourth episode of the new season of Twin Peaks (2017), also known as Twin Peaks: The Return, Bobby Briggs – formerly a young loser and wrangler, and now a deputy at the Twin Peaks Sheriff’s Department – meets Laura Palmer, his high school girlfriend. Her photographic portrait, previously displayed among the trophies and other photos in a cabinet at the local high school they attended (we see it at the beginning of the first episode),1 sits on the table of a meeting room. It had been stored in one of the two containers used to hold the official documents in the investigation into Lau- ra’s murder; like two Pandora’s boxes, these containers have been opened following a statement from the Log: “Something is missing”. That ‘something’ – Margaret Lanterman (‘The Log Lady’) clarifies to deputy Hawk – concerns Agent Cooper and, consequently, his investigation into Laura Palmer’s death. The scene is rather moving, not least because, after four episodes, viewers finally hear the famous and touching Laura Palmer’s theme for the first time.2 As the music starts, we see Bobby’s face, having entered the meeting room where Frank Truman, Tommy Hawks, Lucy, and Andy are gathered. He literally freezes in front of Lau- ra’s framed image, and a ‘dialog’ begin between the two ex-lovers; 1 It’s the same portrait showed at the beginning of the first season, actually the portrait of Laura Palmer.
