Jeune Américain du New Jersey, âgé d’une vingtaine d’années, Arthur © 2021 Musée de Nouvelle-Calédonie page 2 / 3 Collections du Musée de Nouvelle-Calédonie Lavine, était présent en Nouvelle-Calédonie lors de la guerre du Pacifique. Se destinant à une carrière de cinéaste, il avait auparavant débuté des études d’art dramatique à l’université de Caroline du Nord, mais l’épisode néo-calédonien de sa vie va l’inciter à changer de perspective, il sera photographe ! Un photographe dont le travail a été unanimement salué par deux rétrospectives à New York et à San Diego, la ville où il réside. Le musée de Nouvelle-Calédonie a également pris dans sa collection 55 de ses plus belles œuvres néo-calédoniennes. Témoignages d’un passé récent, d’une époque gravée dans les mémoires, ces photographies montrent des thèmes et des préoccupations artistiques qui resteront les siennes durant toute sa carrière. Son approche, quasi journalistique, fait la part belle à la vie quotidienne, à la justesse des compositions, à l’ombre et à la lumière, au rendu des textures et des matières, à la Nouvelle-Calédonie de toutes les ethnies. Il photographie la modestie, le monde du travail, rend compte de l’univers des enfants, s’intéresse aux visages en des portraits intenses.

FOR WEDNESDAY RELEASE ABSTRACT PHOTOGRAPHY OF MANY TYPES TO BE SHOWN AT MUSEUM "Abstraction in Photography," an exhibition of photographs organized by Edward Steichen, will be on view on the first floor of the Museum of Modern Art, 11 West 53 Street, from May 2 through July l*. Mr. Steichen, Director of the Museum's Department of Photography, has selected 150 photographs, both in color and black and white, by 75 photographers, to illustrate abstract images ranging from the scientific document to contrived arrangements and from mechanical pattern to organic design. The abstract phase exhibited as part of "In and Out of Focus," shewn at the Museum in 19^8, and in the "Color photography" exhibition in 1950, is expanded in this survey, in some cases utilizing later work by the same photographers. The present exhibition follows the Museum's Korean war exhibition, just terminated, with a definite intention of contrasting the reality of sensitive reportorial photography of the impact of war on human beings with the scientistts penetrating camera findings through microscope and telescope, coupled with a record of the work of photogra­ phers concerned with evolving another reality by probing into the realm of the abstract. The historical survey of abstract photography presented begins with Matthew Brady's famous photograph of the silhouette of Richmond's ruins in 1865 and then the chronophotography studies of Marey's made between l883~l886.

  • Socially-Engaged Photography Education: the Social-Aesthetic Discourse Promoted by the New York Photo League Ya'ara Gil-Glazer
    Socially-Engaged Photography Education: The Social-Aesthetic Discourse Promoted by the New York Photo League Ya'ara Gil-Glazer The New York Photo League was an activist group of photo-documentarians working in New York City between 1936 and 1951. The group seceded from the radical Workers Film and Photo League established in 1930.i Like many other artists of their generation, they believed in the power of art to bring about social change.ii The League, which was a part of a wider leftist artistic and intellectual milieu in New York during this period, was labeled as radical organization, and in 1947 was blacklisted by the FBI. Four years later, it was forced to cease its activities due to ongoing pressure on its members, which resulted in a massive withdrawal and financial collapse. The initial nucleus of the Photo League was characterized by the predominance of Jewish photographers. Among the later members there were also many who were Jews.iii These were the sons and daughters of working class immigrants, most of them born in the Lower East Side of Manhattan, the Bronx or Brooklyn. The League was an intimate, closely-knit group, and their meeting place on East 21st Street was, for some of them, a second home. According to Deborah Dash-Moore, the group was "a type of Jewish organization characteristic of second generation New York Jews," yet the unifying Jewish factor among its members was rarely expressed.iv Socially engaged images taken by Photo League members were exhibited in various public institutions such as community centers and libraries, as well as in their own photography gallery, and were published mainly in class-conscious newspapers such as New Masses, The Daily Worker and PM.

Making a Photograph designed by an artist rather than simply taken or presents evidence of this process—negatives, field recorded by a machine.
