The evening also showcased the many works by African-American artists in our permanent collections. It was an especially rewarding collaboration for everyone involved. The Links is now continuing this special partnership with a gift of $1,000 to support an education- based internship at the Art Center in 2018 for African-American students. The Art Center, like many museums across the country, is striving to introduce young persons of color to employment in the field in an attempt to increase their numbers in the museum career pipeline. This project will help do so. Another exciting partnership occurred in October with the Iowa Civil Rights Commission. The group held a board meeting at the Art Center where the members toured our recent exhibition, I, too, am America, with Assistant Curator Jared Ledesma. Later in October, the Iowa Civil Rights Commission organized a public symposium, which featured a break-out session entitled, I, too, am America, inspired by the show. This is a wonderful example of the power of art to inspire, illuminate understanding, and engage broad audiences. In early November, the Art Center celebrated the creation of a temporary, large-scale mural on the exterior of the Richard Meier building with a public reception.

  • The Museum of Modern Art
    The Museum of Modern Art For Immediate Release January 1988 FACT SHEET TITLE GARRY WINOGRAND DATES May 15 - August 16, 1988 ORGANIZATION John Szarkowski, Director, Department of Photography, The Museum of Modern Art SPONSORSHIP The exhibition and its accompanying publication are part of the Springs Industries Series on the Art of Photography at The Museum of Modern Art and are generously supported by a grant from Springs Industries, Inc. Additional support for the exhibition has been provided for by the National Endowment for the Arts. CONTENT This retrospective of the photography of Garry Winogrand (1930-1984), perhaps the most influential photographer of his generation, is comprised of more than 200 photographs. The exhibition is presented in nine segments: Eisenhower Years; The Street; Women; The Zoo; On the Road; The Sixties, Etc.; The Fort Worth Fat Stock Show and Rodeo; Airport; and Unfinished Work. The last section shows a fragment of the work that was unedited at the time of his death. This work, which exceeded one-third of a million exposures, was developed posthumously, aided by a grant to the Museum from Springs Industries, Inc. The Museum first exhibited a substantial body of Winogrand's work in 1962 in FIVE UNRELATED PHOTOGRAPHERS. This was followed by the influential NEW DOCUMENTS (1967), with Lee Friedlander and Diane Arbus; THE ANIMALS (1969-70), his first one-man show; and PUBLIC RELATIONS (1977), which generated an exceptional range of critical opinion. The complexity of Winogrand's photographs and his disregard for conventional ideas of good design resulted 1n what looked to many like extraordinarily busy snapshots.

  • From the Museum to the Street: Garry Winogrand's Public Relations and the Actuality of Protest
    arts Article From the Museum to the Street: Garry Winogrand’s Public Relations and the Actuality of Protest Simon Constantine Department of History of Art, University College London, London WC1E 6BT, UK; [email protected] Received: 12 March 2019; Accepted: 16 April 2019; Published: 3 May 2019 Abstract: Focusing on Garry Winogrand’s Public Relations (1977), this article explores the problematic encounter between street photography and protest during the Vietnam War era. In doing so, it considers the extent to which Winogrand’s engagement with protest altered the formalist discourse that had surrounded his practice and the ‘genre’ of street photography more broadly since the 1950s. It is suggested that, although Winogrand never abandoned his debt to this framework, the logic of protest also intensified its internal contradictions, prompting a new attitude towards the crowd, art institution, street and mass media. By exploring this shift, this article seeks to demonstrate that, while the various leftist critiques of Winogrand’s practice remain valid, Public Relations had certain affinities with the progressive artistic and political movements of the period. Keywords: street photography; Winogrand; formalism; protest; Vietnam War; documentary 1. Introduction In her 1981 essay, ‘In, Around and Afterthoughts (on Documentary Photography)’, Martha Rosler sought to reinvent documentary practice through a Marxist critique of its traditions, truth claims and political assumptions. However, in doing so, she also stressed the difference between this project and a second, reactionary attack upon photographic credibility; one conducted by a postwar art establishment, which sought to secure ‘the primacy of authorship’ and avoid the social by isolating images ‘within the gallery–museum–art–market nexus’ (Rosler 1992, p.

  • Reflections in the Helmet Shield
    Alec Soth's Archived Blog July 17, 2007 Reflections in the helmet shield Filed under: aesthetics,photo tech,quotes — alecsothblog @ 10:27 pm On the cover of this month’s Vanity Fair is a typical bland celebrity photograph. The only interesting element in the picture is the reflection in the helmet: I’m glad I didn’t have to take this picture. All of that equipment looks like a drag. In the current issue of PDN, Joseph Kudelka talks about making pictures. “For me photography is playing,” he says, “I go out and I play and I try to discover.” Later in the interview he tells this story of showing pictures to John Szarkowski. My sister lived in Canada. I was on my way to visit my sister because my mother had gotten permission to go there. I brought with me little prints that, when I traveled, I would show. I missed my plane and went over to Elliot Erwitt’s place. He said, “You are here, so why not show your pictures to this guy from the Museum of Modern Art who once published one of your photographs, John Szarkowski?” I went there and said I have some pictures that I was going to show my sister and mother so they could see the places I’ve been, and he looked through them and John said – this I’ll never forget – “I feel I’d like to go out and take pictures again. And I would like to make your show.” In Szarkowski’s 1979 book/exhibition, Mirrors and Windows, he divides photographic practice into two categories.

John Szarkowski, Director of the Department of Photography, writes in his intro- this duction to the exhibition, "In the past decade/new generation of photographers has redirected the technique and aesthetic of documentary photography to more personal ends. Their aim has been not to reform life but to know it, not to persuade but to understand. The world, in spite of its terrors, is approached as the ultimate source of wonder and fascination, no less precious for being irrational and inco* herent." Their approach differs radically from the documentary photographers of the thirties and forties, when the term was relatively new. Then, photographers used their art as a tool of social reform; "it wac their hope that their pictures would make clear what was wrong with the world, and persuade their fellows to take action and change it," according to Szarkowski, "VJhat unites these three photographers," he says, "is not style or sensibility; each has a distinct and personal sense of the use of photography and the meanings of the world. What is held in common is the belief that the world is worth looking at, and the courage to look at it without theorizing," Garry Winogrand*a subjects range from a group of bathers at Eastharapton Beach on Long Island to a group of tourists at Forest Lawn Cemetery in Los Angeles and refer to much of contemporary America, from the Beverly Hilton Hotel in California to peace marchers in Cape Cod, (more) f3 -2- (21) Winograod was born in New York City in I928 and b3gan photographing while in the Air Force during the second World War.

  • The History of Photography: the Research Library of the Mack Lee
    THE HISTORY OF PHOTOGRAPHY The Research Library of the Mack Lee Gallery 2,633 titles in circa 3,140 volumes Lee Gallery Photography Research Library Comprising over 3,100 volumes of monographs, exhibition catalogues and periodicals, the Lee Gallery Photography Research Library provides an overview of the history of photography, with a focus on the nineteenth century, in particular on the first three decades after the invention photography. Strengths of the Lee Library include American, British, and French photography and photographers. The publications on French 19th- century material (numbering well over 100), include many uncommon specialized catalogues from French regional museums and galleries, on the major photographers of the time, such as Eugène Atget, Daguerre, Gustave Le Gray, Charles Marville, Félix Nadar, Charles Nègre, and others. In addition, it is noteworthy that the library includes many small exhibition catalogues, which are often the only publication on specific photographers’ work, providing invaluable research material. The major developments and evolutions in the history of photography are covered, including numerous titles on the pioneers of photography and photographic processes such as daguerreotypes, calotypes, and the invention of negative-positive photography. The Lee Gallery Library has great depth in the Pictorialist Photography aesthetic movement, the Photo- Secession and the circle of Alfred Stieglitz, as evidenced by the numerous titles on American photography of the early 20th-century. This is supplemented by concentrations of books on the photography of the American Civil War and the exploration of the American West. Photojournalism is also well represented, from war documentary to Farm Security Administration and LIFE photography.

  • Examinations of Projected Freedom: Photography and the Spaces of the American West” by Andrew Gansky
    “Examinations of Projected Freedom: Photography and the Spaces of the American West” by Andrew Gansky Submission for: Thompson Award for Western American Writing ABSTRACT Despite relatively recent trends in the history of the American West, which have increasingly cast the region as a land of dwindling resources, overpopulation, and ecological deterioration, it retains a great degree of its mythological connotations as a landscape of hope and opportunities for much of mainstream America. This analysis is largely concerned with two contradictory, normative European-American conceptions of the West, and their intersections with the photographic medium. These two primary mythologies of the West historically and artistically construe the American landscape as both transcendental wilderness and industrial economic resource. Although these constructs are somewhat paradoxical, they are not mutually exclusive. Both concepts derive from an overarching interpretation of western space that equates the perceived openness and expansiveness of the western landscape with physical mobility, social fluidity, and democratic freedom. Within this mythological and ideological context, this thesis considers landscape photography’s role in the twentieth-century West, and its conversations with the formal conventions and archetypal subject matter established by such early landscape photographers as Timothy O’Sullivan, Carleton Watkins, and William Henry Jackson. As the twentieth century progressed to its middle years, many forests, mountain ranges, and prairies had been decimated to extract lumber, oil, and mineral resources, while automobiles and the economic facts of the middle class had given rise to a vast tourism industry. Photography was slow to adapt to these realities. Ansel Adams in particular continued to depict a vacant, wondrous West throughout the 1950s and ’60s.
