I). Journal Work: 120 Points. ***Examples Are Provided on the Next Few Pages AP Photo: Summer Assignment 2018 Name: ______________________ Due: 1st class this fall Your summer work will consist of 2 parts: journaling and photography. Plan to spend 20-30 hours doing the work. Try to do a little each week. This will be your first grade for the fall. Here are the parts in more detail. Good luck and have fun! I). Journal work: 120 points. ***Examples are provided on the next few pages. a). 3 Pages from Scratch: 45 points Create compositions from scratch that have a clear focal point. You may use any of the following materials and techniques: colored pencils, pencils, pens, drawing inks, watercolors, pastels, charcoal, collage, image transfers, cutting into, adding onto. You may want to start with a photo of your own or use found materials. b). Describe 5 Concentration ideas: 30 points Concentration: a body of work centered on a compelling theme. You will create at least 12 concentration pieces next year. Your concentration should be something you are passionate about and can carry through over an entire year. I’m looking for depth here. As you start looking at artists, you may find techniques and themes that really engage you. I’d like you to write a paragraph on each of your concentration ideas. If you find a photo(s) that deal with your theme or use a technique you may use in your concentration, include them as well. c). Three Artists of Influence Spreads: 45 points Create a 2 page spread on each artist. On the first page, print out small pictures of 4-6 works. Paste these into your notebook. Number them. On the next page, please answer the following: a. Why you picked this artist; what about their work intrigues you? b. Write several lines of commentary on each of these works. Address what you like, dislike, composition, lighting mood, message, technique etc. II). 4 rolls of film (35mm or 120mm) or 150+ digital photos. Have fun, experiment with different lenses and lens filters. 150 points Here are some ideas: -shoot in the style of a photographer you like -explore a theme or subject in depth, even possible concentration ideas -shoot photos that would be potential breadth pieces, works that have strong consideration for the principles of design (balance, repetition and rhythm, unity/variety, contrast, emphasis, scale) If your photos are digital bring them on a flash drive or already uploaded to your computer. If you have B/W film, bring it in to process. If you used color film, please get it processed before you return to school (ask the lab to give you a CD with high resolution images) Bring in photos or a CD with your photos on it. 1 EXAMPLES OF JOURNAL WORK: Pages from scratch: pastel and magazine collage acrylic, collage, pen, thread and ribbon *Use an entire page for each composition, and incorporate photographs along with other art media. Consider utilizing collage, paint, pen, sharpie, pencil, pastels, fabric, thread, and text. Think of each piece as an individual work of art. Look at other creative art journal pages for inspiration. Example of a concentration idea, fleshed out: The Reflected Image and Black Identity: My idea is to do a concentration with young black females looking into various mirrors. My desire to do this concentration comes from the struggle I have seen black women have with fitting in to mainstream culture and its ideas about beauty. I’ve seen many try to fit the norm by changing their appearance. I might examine various feelings that black women have when looking into the mirror, from positive (coy, powerful) to negative (self doubt, seeking approval etc). The mirror can create such a psychological feeling to a picture: it can reflect accurately, distort, exaggerate, minimize etc. I am trying to get into the psychology of black women. Other factors such as lighting, camera angle, multiple mirrors will be examined to see how they can further the emotional aspects of the reflected images. 2 List of Artists for Artist of Influence Spreads: you can do artists that are not on this list.

  • Stephen Shore's Offbeat Sublimities
    12/4/2017 Stephen Shore’s Offbeat Sublimities | The New Yorker The Art World December 11, 2017 Issue Stephen Shore’s Offbeat Sublimities An immersive and staggeringly charming retrospective of the photographer’s work showcases his easeful acceptance of the world. By Peter Schjeldahl “Yucatán, Mexico, 1990.” A search for fresh astonishments has kept Shore peripatetic. Courtesy the artist / 303 Gallery tephen Shore, the subject of an immersive and staggeringly charming retrospective S at the Museum of Modern Art, is my favorite American photographer of the past https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2017/12/11/stephen-shores-offbeat-sublimities 1/7 12/4/2017 Stephen Shore’s Offbeat Sublimities | The New Yorker half century. This is not purely a judgment of quality. Shore has peers in a generation that, in the nineteen-seventies, stormed to eminence with color lm, which art photographers had long disdained, and, often, with a detached scrutiny of suburban sprawl, woebegone towns, touristed nature, cars (always cars), and other familiar and banal, accidentally beautiful, cross-country phenomena. The closest to Shore, in a cohort that includes Joel Meyerowitz, Joel Sternfeld, and Richard Misrach, is his friend William Eggleston, the raffish Southern aristocrat who has made pictures unbeatably intense and iconic: epiphanies triggered by the hues and textures of a stranded tricycle, say, or of a faded billboard in a scrubby eld. While similarly alert to offbeat sublimities, Shore is a New Yorker more receptive than marauding in attitude. I fancy that Eggleston is the cavalier Mephistopheles of American color photography, and Shore the discreet angel Gabriel.

  • TROUBLE in the “PSYCHOSPHERE”: HBO‟S TRUE DETECTIVE (2014) AS a HYBRID GENRE Elisabete Lopes ABSTRACT Recently, Many Conte
    TROUBLE IN THE “PSYCHOSPHERE”: HBO‟S TRUE DETECTIVE (2014) AS A HYBRID GENRE Elisabete Lopes1 ABSTRACT Recently, many contemporary TV shows have raised the stakes as far as the quality of their contents is concerned. They welcomed certain challenges that contributed to lend them the status of cult series. True Detective (2014) certainly forms part of this selective group. Nic Pizzolatto, the creative mind behind True Detective (2014), decided to take up all these challenges and ended up by creating a hybrid show in the sense that it gathers elements of Gothic genre, weird fiction, criminal investigation, and film noir that, once mixed up, paved the way to the upcoming success. Other feature that fuels True Detective‟s allure lies precisely in the ties that it openly shares with literature, since it purports references that point to well-known oeuvres or authors. In this light, it is the purpose of this essay to examine how Pizzolatto‟s eclectic recipe combine its ingredients that result in a TV show anchored upon the parameters of originality and quality. The undeniable quality of True Detective (2014) goes beyond the well-thought script, Adam Arkapaw‟s mesmerizing photography, the protagonists‟ amazing performance, and the careful direction of Cary Fukunaga. It has become a true postmodern visual monster that unexpectedly came straight from the Lousiana bayous to haunt us, bringing along an aura of cosmic horror that, interlinked with suspense and criminal investigation, will relentlessly take a grip on us. Keywords: True Detective (2014); Gothic; Southern Gothic; Film Noir; Cosmic Horror; criminal investigation. PERTURBAÇÕES NA „PSICOESFERA‟: TRUE DETECTIVE (2014) ENQUANTO GÉNERO HÍBRIDO RESUMO Recentemente, tem-se assistido a uma crescente qualidade a nível das séries televisivas.

  • Richard Misrach and Guillermo Galindo Document the Realities of the Us-Mexico Borderlands in New Exhibition at Sjma
    For Immediate Release RICHARD MISRACH AND GUILLERMO GALINDO DOCUMENT THE REALITIES OF THE US-MEXICO BORDERLANDS IN NEW EXHIBITION AT SJMA Border Cantos: Richard Misrach | Guillermo Galindo February 26 – July 26, 2016 SAN JOSE, California (February 2016)— Immigration—seen in intimate, human terms—is the subject of an exhibition premiering at the San Jose Museum of Art beginning February 26. Developed collaboratively by photographer Richard Misrach and experimental composer Guillermo Galindo, Border Cantos is both a cross-disciplinary exploration of the US/ Mexico border and the artists’ “song” about the realities of life in this contested zone. The exhibition features 36 monumental landscape photographs of the borderlands by Misrach alongside 17 hand-crafted musical instruments created by Galindo from found objects recovered from the border (e.g. a shoe, a backpack, a drag tire). The exhibition will also include a sound installation by Galindo, who has composed original compositions for his sculptural instruments that fill a dedicated, 2,000-square foot gallery. Border Cantos will be on view at SJMA from February 26 – July 26, 2016; it then travels to the Amon Carter Museum of American Art, Fort Worth, Texas, and the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, Bentonville, Arkansas. “The San Jose Museum of Art is proud to showcase this powerful collaboration between Richard Misrach and Guillermo Galindo, both Bay Area residents. Border Cantos offers a humanitarian perspective on heated political issues around immigration, border security, and immigration reform.” says Susan Krane, Oshman Executive Director of the San Jose Museum of Art. “In San Jose, some 50% of those over 35 were born in a different country.

  • To What Extent Did the New Topographic Movement Reflect Changing Attitudes Towards Landscape Photography?
    Laura Aldington To what extent did the new topographic movement reflect changing attitudes towards landscape photography? “Landscape photographs can offer us, I think, three truths- geography, if taken on its own, is sometimes boring, autobiography is frequently trivial, and metaphor can be dubious. But taken together... the three kinds of information strengthen each other and reinforce what we all work to keep in tact- an affection for life.”1 This essay will explore the genre of landscape photography, in particular focusing on the New Topographic movement. The aim of the essay is to evaluate and asses to what extent the New Topographic movement reflects the changing attitudes towards landscape photography. Within this it will therefore come across several other important questions, looking into what is perceived as a landscape, whether aspects of landscape photography may have changed and exploring to what extent the new topographic movement had a role to play in this, if at all. As the aim is to look at changing attitudes towards landscape photography, it may also be considered beneficial when answering the question, to explore political and social factors which may have an influence on landscape photography, and the changing ways people perceive it as a genre. Defining 'landscape' tends to be controversial. There is a difference between 'land' and 'landscape'. In principle the land is a natural phenomenon, although land in modern times (particularly in the developing and developed world) tends to be subject to human intervention 2. This can be seen through acts such as the industrial revolution, industrialisation, urban sprawl and deforestation.
