Albero folgorato (Thunderstuck Tree), 2012, is the culmination of this series. Cast in bronze from a willow that had been struck by lightning, it both captures a moment in time and stands fixed as a profoundly evocative and timeless monument.

    Hallelujah for Prague : An American Orbis Picta Gerald O'Grady "And your own life, while it's happening to you never has any atmosphere until it's a memory." Andy Warhol(a), America (New York: Harper & Row, 1985), p. 8 . It was in November, 1968 that Miles Glaser telephoned me at The Media Center having another person's organs providing their central functions, and how they which I had established at 3512 Mount Vernon Street in Houston under the integrated these different physical parts into a psychic unity. Although he and his patronage of John and Dominique de Menil, and asked if I would be interested in colleagues always acted with the greatest discretion, mentioning no names and screening a film about which he briefly described the conditions of production. I met simply sketching outsituational details, itwasthrough them that I learned, anecdotally, him and Jan Nemec for the first time a few hours later, and Oratorio for Prague was about a few of the somewhat bizarre circumstances which surrounded those efforts screened on November 15, together with Nemec's Report on the Party and the on the operating table which were making international headlines. It involved how Guests, a political parable about a group of people who, for reasons ranging from ordinary people would act when survival was at stake . opportunism to sheer terror, are members of a party they have no desire to join in . Those eligible for heart transplants would move into motels surrounding the Nemec, with Glaser acting as producer, had made a documentary about the hospital, such as Tides II across North Main Street .

Box 210103 Tucson, AZ 85721 Phone: 520-621-6273 Fax: 520-621-9444 Email: [email protected] URL: http://creativephotography.org Finding aid for the Friends of Photography archive, 1964-2005 AG 186 Finding aid updated by Tai Huesgen, 2019 AG 186: Friends of Photography archive - page 2 Friends of Photography archive, 1964-2005 AG 186 Creator Friends of Photography Quantity/ Extent 125 linear feet Language of Materials Predominantly English Historical Note The Friends of Photography was formed in 1967 in Carmel, California of eleven members, including Ansel Adams, Beaumont & Nancy Newhall, Brett Weston, and other figures involved in 20th century photography. After Ansel Adams’s death in 1984, the Friends began searching for gallery space in San Francisco, first moving into office space and eventually opening the Ansel Adams Center in the Yerba Buena cultural district in 1989. In 2001 the Friends moved into a new facility on Mission Street in San Francisco but, facing financial difficulties, decided to close within the year. The Friends’ final exhibitions ended on September 30, 2001 and the group closed its doors to the public in October, 2001. Scope and Content Note The Friends of Photography records measure approximately 125 linear feet and date from 1964 to 2005, although the bulk of the material falls between 1985 and 2001 when the organization was based in San Francisco, California. Files from earlier years when the organization was located in Carmel, California were most likely lost during the group’s gradual move to San Francisco in the years following Ansel Adams death in 1984.
