  • Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation Prize 2019 Shortlist Announcement: Laia Abril, Susan Meiselas, Arwed Messmer, Mark Ruwedel 8 Mar – 2 Jun 2019
    DEUTSCHE BÖRSE PHOTOGRAPHY FOUNDATION PRIZE 2019 SHORTLIST ANNOUNCEMENT: LAIA ABRIL, SUSAN MEISELAS, ARWED MESSMER, MARK RUWEDEL 8 MAR – 2 JUN 2019 For Immediate Release: 5 November 2018 The four artists shortlisted for the Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation Prize 2019 are Laia Abril, Susan Meiselas, Arwed Messmer and Mark Ruwedel. Now in its twenty-second year, this highly regarded annual prize, originated by The Photographers’ Gallery and subsequently awarded in collaboration with the Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation, recognises artists and projects deemed to have made a significant contribution to photography over the previous 12 months in Europe. This year’s nominees survey a vast range of topical issues through the lens and language of photography. Collectively their projects explore state and gender politics, social injustice, human rights and conceptual approaches to image making. An exhibition of the shortlisted projects will be on show at The Photographers’ Gallery from 8 March to 2 June 2019, before touring to Deutsche Börse's headquarters in Eschborn/Frankfurt. The winner of the £30,000 prize will be announced at a special award ceremony held at The Photographers’ Gallery on 16 May 2019. The Shortlisted Artists and Projects: Laia Abril (b. 1986, Spain) has been nominated for the publication On Abortion (Dewi Lewis Publishing, November 2017). On Abortion is a visual research project that draws on the past, present and current history of abortion to highlight the continuing erosion of women’s reproductive rights. For centuries, people have searched for ways to terminate unsafe or unwanted pregnancies. Despite the fact that today safe and efficient means of abortion exist, many women are still forced to resort to ancient, illegal or risky home methods resulting in approximately 47,000 deaths due to failed procedures each year.

  • Project #3: Inspired By… - Description Critique Date - 3/29/19 (Fri)
    Project #3: Inspired by… - Description Critique Date - 3/29/19 (Fri) "The world is filled to suffocating. Man has placed his token on every stone. Every word, every image, is leased and mortgaged. We know that a picture is but a space in which a variety of images, none of them original, blend and clash." – Sherrie Levine Conceptual Requirements: In this project, you will do your best to interpret the style of a particular photographer who interests you. You will research them as well as their work in order to make photographs that have a signature aesthetic or approach that is specific to them, and also contribute your ideas. Technical Requirements: 1. Start with the list on the back of this page (the Project Description sheet), and start web searches for these photographers. All the ones listed are masters in their own right and a good starting point for you to begin your search. Select one and confirm your choice with me by the due date (see the syllabus). 2. After choosing a photographer, go on the web and to the library to check out books on them, read interviews, and look at every image you can that is made by them. Learn as much as you can and take notes on your sources. 3. Type your name, date, and “Project 3: Inspired by...” at the top of a Letter sized page. Then write a 2 page research paper on your chosen photographer. Be sure to include information such as where and when they were born, where it is that they did their work, what kind of camera and film formats they used, their own personal history, etc.

  • LAH 350 (30200) Photography in Modern American Culture Robert H
    LAH 350 (30200) Photography in Modern American Culture Robert H. Abzug Professor of History and American Studies Class Meetings: TTH 2:00-3:30 PM @ RLP (CLA) 0.124 (and HRC on occasion) Office Hours: TTH 3:30-4:30 PM and by appointment [email protected] Professor’s Office: Garrison 3.310 (NW corner of 3rd floor) We will investigate the importance of photography in the United States in relationship to changing currents in America society and culture. We will explore the history of the medium, from 19th century daguerreotypes and wet plate to digital imaging; the relationship between photography and American history, especially in relation to popular culture, social depiction, and war. We will be especially interested in photographic works that attempt to represent the nature of America and American life. A one semester seminar cannot hope to cover all the essential topics concerning American photography, let alone photography in general. That is why the papers you will be writing are essential not only to your own work but to the seminar. Each of you will have c. 20 minutes to introduce the photographer about whom you are writing in the last sessions of the class. These reports will not only be helpful in gleaning suggestions from other members of the class, but will add to the breadth of knowledge begun with the earlier class sessions and readings. In addition to considering how others have photographed American life, students will have the opportunity to make their own photographs. Any camera or cell phone with the capacity to take photographic images will do for equipment.

  • Josef Koudelka Wall Label
    The Museum of Modern Art H West 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 956-6100 Cable-. Modernart WALL LABEL JOSEF KOUDELKA February 2^ -April 30, 1975 The Czech photographer Josef Koudelka was born in the Moravian town of Boskovice in 1938, the year in which the cession of the Sudetenland to Germany began the dismemberment of the young Czechoslovakian republic. Koudelka attended the Technical University of Prague, and took his degree in aeronautical engineering. He worked in this field until 1967; since then he has devoted himself entirely to photography. His earlier work as a photographer was concerned largely with interpretation of the theater, and includes a book on Alfred Jarry's Ubu Roi and considerable work for the magazine Divadlo (Theater). In the past decade the major continuing subject of his work has been the Gypsies of Europe. Koudelka left Czechoslovakia in 1968--the year in which the "Prague Spring" was answered with military occupation by the Soviet Union, East Germany, Poland, Hungary, and Bulgaria. He has since traveled in England, France, Ireland, and Spain. The Czech critic Anna F^rova* has noted that photographers in her country have generally regarded the expressive and the documentary functions of ,'heir medium as antithetical. In this view, the artistic potentials of photography are served by idealized interpretations of recognizably poetic subject matter. Photographs with topical relevance, on the other hand, are judged by a utilitarian standard, to which aesthetic values are thought irrelevant. Elsewhere such attempts to divide the role of photography into spiritual and mundane categories have met with little success.

Public Talks by Susan Meiselas and Mercedes Doretti, Remembrance of a Massacre El Mozote: Finding the Evidence: Monday, March 25, 1:00 – 2:30 pm. (NAB 1100) The price of collecting information or news is at the cost of living like a human being. On the other hand, the price of getting involved is you might not be seen as a reliable witness. Sometimes I think that a photograph is instead of a relationship, and yet a photograph is a relationship. —Susan Meiselas, Voyages (1985) The Amelie A. Wallace Gallery at the State University of New York College at Old Westbury is pleased to announce the opening of Nicaragua 1978–2018: Susan Meiselas, an exhibition featuring works by U.S. documentary photographer Susan Meiselas, who arrived in Nicaragua in 1978 to cover the populist insurrection that overthrew the regime of Anastasio Somoza, the country’s longtime dictator. Meiselas’s photographs of the Nicaraguan revolution sparked by the assassination of Pedro Joaquin Chamorro, the editor of the opposition newspaper La Prensa, have become iconic images that epitomize the courage and resolve of ordinary people. Meiselas’s work forms an extraordinary narrative that begins with a powerful and chilling evocation of the Somoza regime, and then follows the course of the resistance that led to the insurrection culminating in the triumph of the Sandinista revolution of 1979. Meiselas’s book, Nicaragua June 1978– July 1979, originally published in 1981, became a contemporary classic that points to the potential of concerned photojournalism.
