  • Lillian Bassman: Elegance
    DINA MITRANI GALLERY FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Lillian Bassman: Elegance October 22 – December 30, 2016 Dina Mitrani Gallery is proud to present a significant collection of signed silver gelatin prints by American artist Lillian Bassman (1917-2012). The exhibition opens on Saturday October 22, 2016 at 7pm, will be on view through December 30th, and is the third collaborative project with Peter Fetterman Gallery, based in Los Angeles. Bassman’s unique graphic style of photography illustrates feminine mystique and glamour, as well as a courageous artist blurring the boundaries between fashion photography and fine art. Born in Brooklyn in 1917 to Russian intellectual immigrants, Lillian Bassman entered the fashion world after taking a design class taught by the famous art director, Alexey Brodovitch. Noticing her astute visual talents, Brodovitch appointed Bassman as his Co-Art Director in the founding of Junior Bazaar magazine in 1945. In that position, she helped launch the careers of many notable photographers of the century including Richard Avedon, Robert Frank, Leslie Gill, Arnold Newman, Paul Himmel and many more. After the publication was absorbed by Harper’s Bazaar, and, at the urging of her colleagues, Bassman began to photograph the models she worked with and quickly developed a body of work that was unlike any other fashion images of the period. As fashion photography began to evolve into a more direct visual approach, Bassman continually experimented in the darkroom using various bleaching, filtering, and softening techniques, painting with light to achieve her mysterious aesthetic. Along with her contemporaries Irving Penn and Richard Avedon, Bassman’s creative efforts elevated the genre of fashion photography out of the art world shadows.

Through powerful story-telling, the campaign aims to generate public dialogue on gender and education issues as well as spark community-led change as individuals who are motivated by these stories choose to address barriers to girls’ education in their own communities. The Campaign’s vision is to change the way the girl child is valued in the society, to increase access to equitable, quality education for girls, reduce gender disparity in education in India through the medium of storytelling and films, and thereby increase investment in girls education and investment programs. 3 ABOUT THE GIRL RISING With this in mind, the film helps focus the audience on three very important facets.

  • 20Th-Cent. Portraits #2 Press Release 2.23.19
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 20th-Century Portraits February 1 – March 30, 2019 Deborah Bell Photographs is pleased to present an exhibition of portraits by American and European photographers of the 20th Century. Photographers whose works are on view include Erwin Blumenfeld, Louis Faurer, G.P. Fieret, Hiro, Rose Mandel, Marcia Resnick, August Sander, and Deborah Turbeville. Uniting many of the various images selected is the photographers' use of dramatic lighting and innovative, experimental printing techniques, resulting in captivating, and often abstract or even surreal, renditions of their subjects in ordinary contexts. Erwin Blumenfeld (American, b. Germany 1897; d. 1969) Erwin Blumenfeld was born in Berlin, where he practiced photography as a young boy. From 1916-1918 he served as an ambulance driver in the German army. He began to write and paint at the time when the German Dada movement was becoming established. In 1918 Blumenfeld moved to Holland, where he was involved with the Dada movement in Amsterdam; four years later he opened a leather goods shop, the Fox Leather Company, on the fashionable Kalverstraat. In 1932 Blumenfeld moved Fox to a new location, where he discovered a darkroom in the back of the store that was left by a previous occupant, and began taking photographs again. During this period Blumenfeld's photographs and art became well known, and his work was included in two exhibitions at the modern art gallery Kunstzaal Van Lier in Amsterdam in 1932 and 1933, the second of which, "Dutch Faces," consisted of 50 photographic portraits. Blumenfeld's shop went bankrupt in 1935, and in 1936 he left Holland to establish himself in Paris as a professional photographer.

ZANARDI Executive producer April Chandler PRODUCERS: HARRY BELAFONTE JR. GK REID INDRANI PAL-CHAUDHURI DAVID G. ZANARDI DIRECTED BY: INDRANI PAL-CHAUDHURI LOGLINE In the Roaring 1920’s, when jazz and race riots burn across America, a fabulous flapper risks all to become the first female African American pilot, helping unite a country divided by race. Short SYNOPSIS Raised on the cotton-fields of segregated Texas, Bessie finds love and inspiration among giants of music, media, finance and activism in Jazz Age 1920’s Chicago. When race riots erupt, she risks everything to become the first female African American and Native American pilot and barnstorming sensation, helping unite a country divided by race. Long SYNOPSIS Challenged since childhood, working the cotton-fields and laundry press with her illiterate yet inspiring parents, young Bessie helps raise her siblings amidst the oppression of segregated Texas. Intelligent and defiant, she refuses to conform to society’s demands, battling poverty, racism and sexism. She vows to rise above her circumstances and become “somebody.” Hope inspires her escape to Chicago, where African Americans are breaking boundaries, finding unprecedented success. Though admonished by sister-in-law Willie, she ascends to the heights of the passion and sensuality of the jazz clubs along Chicago’s Southside.

  • Foreword by Ted Croner
    Foreword by Ted Croner This story begins with a phone call from a young lady who, at that moment, was a student at the International Center of Photography in New York City. She tells me that she is doing a book on famous photographers and has photographed Cornell Capa, Arnold Newman and several others. Also…. she has been given my name by Arnold Newman – could she come to see me to take my photograph and do an interview. Tina and her Rollei arrived at my studio several days later. All went well and rather effortlessly. I was charmed by her manner, but I did not feel I had been the subject of a shooting by a Beethoven of the camera. Several days later I saw the results – contacts and a few blow-ups. I was just amazed. All were exceptionally good journalistic-type photos, but one was great. It knocked my socks off! It had ‘shock appeal’ – a term Alexey Brodovitch used to describe a particularly powerful and exciting picture that opened your eyes and mind. It reminded me at this point of my early days in New York, when I was a student in Alexey Brodovitch’s class. To name a few of the students – Bob Frank, Louis Faurer, Paul Himmel, Lillian Bassman, Karen Radkai, etc…The class first met at the New School, and, later at Dick Avedon’s studio. We met every Wednesday night and would be given an assignment. In the following session we would review the results. These were laid out (no names) on a large table.
