  • Identity in the Landscape Essay
    JP Alvarez, Emma Kimbrough, Veronika Lubeck Professor Pappas ARTH 140 16 March 2021 de Saisset Museum Exhibition: Identity in the Landscape Abstract: In this essay, we discuss a selection of landscape and landscape-adjacent photography from the western United States, focusing on how different photographers represent different kinds of relationships between people and the landscape. We look specifically at the photographers’ identities and analyze how they could factor into the meanings of the photographs, either intentionally or unintentionally, with the goal of making traditionally invisible identities like whiteness and maleness more visible. We begin by looking at the role of gender in photography, contrasting Ansel Adams with Judy Dater, who have very different approaches to including people in their landscapes. Then, we focus on the role of cultural identity, specifically Native American identity, contrasting Laura Gilpin, who was not Native, with Dugan Aguilar, who was. We then discuss Mark Klett, a more contemporary white man whose work is in the middle; he breaks down some norms while reinforcing others. We conclude with Dorothea Lange and Anthony Hernandez, emphasizing more non-traditional and socially conscious landscapes depicting poverty and a lack of rootedness. Essay: Our exhibition attempts to show the intersection of human influence and landscape photography through the analysis of photos from photographers with various backgrounds. There are competing ideas of what role humans have in the environment, and we can clearly see this in the different perspectives of the landscape photos. Our exhibition focuses on men and women photographers as well as Native American identities. All of the photos in the exhibition were taken in the western part of the United States, which lays a common foundation for our analysis.

I related to this work for I believe humans aren’t superior, that we are interconnected and part of the chain of life with other creatures.

While he put away cartons of candy and popcorn and retreated to his office, she stepped into the blackest space imaginable to her, its rows of red velvet seats empty of peo- Eple. Alone with her fear, she dared herself to walk from the doorway down to the stage, touch it and then run back up the aisle. Sixteen years later — after Gary Cooper and Ingrid Bergman, after Lawrence of Arabia and East of Eden, after movie-theater birthday parties and high school ticket-selling — Dater found herself again in the dark. But instead of films flickering on a screen, her black-and-white images slowly emerged onto paper floating in a tray of developer. While her father’s movie theater set the stage for Dater’s interest in pho- tography, it was her college darkroom that wrote the script for her life calling 10 · PFMAGAZINE.COM | PHOTOGRAPHER’S FORUM | FALL 2012 © JUDY DATER Nehemiah’s back, 1975 FALL 2012 | PHOTOGRAPHER’S FORUM | PFMAGAZINE.COM · 11 Dater arrived as a photographer in the late 60s, at the vital cultural intersection of photography and feminism. © JUDY DATER President Slain, from Memoirs, 2012 as an artist. “I loved the instantaneousness, the mystery of the Argentina, France, Italy, Egypt and the U.S., mainly in California, photographic process.

  • 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.

Last year's report was devoted largely to a discussion of Bowdoin's successful reaccreditation review. I enjoyed the opportunity to pass along the many good things said about Bowdoin, while acknowledging that Bowdoin, like all institutions, had some challenges still to meet. The report concluded with a discussion of those steps being taken to ensure that each challenge would be addressed. This year's report will in part continue to address those concerns as I review the accomplishments of the College.

  • Photographers We Have Our Eye On
    Photographers We Have Our Eye On By Paddle8 Joslin Van Arsdale combs the aisles at AIPAD, the international contemporary photo fair, for rare finds from established names, new faces, and rediscovered talents. Collectors who want to discover which way the winds are blowing in the photography market would do well to attend the Photography Show put on by the Association of International Photography Dealers—known colloquially as the AIPAD fair—held at the Park Avenue Armory in New York each April. Running this week from April 14–17, the event draws nearly 90 dealers from around the globe (Antwerp, Paris, Buenos Aires), showcasing works from experimental 19th-century albumen prints to digital films to the evolving medium of photobooks. Below, Paddle8’s Los Angeles–based photography specialist, Joslin Van Arsdale, chooses her favorites from this year’s movable feast for the eyes. Hans Breder "Breder's Body Sculptures, which he made between 1969 and 1974, are a mixture of performance, sculpture and photography, using the mirror to capture the space in between. Made over 40 years ago, this work is an important precursor to the themes currently being explored by contemporary photographers today." Sabrina Gschwandtner "Experimenting with materiality and process, Gschwandtner's unique, hand-stitched quilt patterns are made from 16mm films deaccessioned from the Fashion Institute of Technology's collection. As three-dimensional sculptures on lightboxes, they reference storytelling through both the symbol of the quilt as well as the linear, time-based narrative of film." Ray Metzker "A master printer and photographer, Metzker captured the isolation of living in a big city through the juxtaposition of singular figures bisected by precise lines of light and shadows.
