The PHOTO REVIEW NEWSLETTER

July / August 2020 BLACK LIVES MATTER Black Lives Matter. This is an indisputable statement. Around the world, murders of Black people by police and vigilantes have inspired uprisings, rage, despair, and demands for systemic change. While these demands often focus on the injustices of the government, non-Black people should all be asking ourselves what systems we are a part of and how we might influ- ence these systems to be part of necessary change.

As you well know, I am the editor of The Photo Review. As you might know, I am a white, cisgender, straight man, old enough to be in the at-risk group during this pan- demic. Inhabiting these places of privilege, I consider it particularly important for me to ask myself what my place is in this struggle. My family is Jewish — my father and his family were immigrants escaping pogroms in Russia, and the reality of the Holocaust was ever present in my childhood. I do not com- pare these experiences with those of Black Americans — rather, I want to express that I see my fight against various forms of white supremacy on a very personal level. I know I must use what privilege I have to work toward the implementation of the values of the Black Lives Matter movement. John Dowell: The Healing Table, 2016, from Cotton: The Soft, Dangerous Beauty of the Past, archival pigment print, 27˝x34˝ My work is situated at the intersection of fine art photography, journalism, and the art market. So that is where I’ll start. The Photo Review is in discussion with several Black photographers and writers to increase our coverage of images and issues of importance to Black communities and other communities of color and their relationship to the medium of photography.

But this is only one approach. I want to ask my peers and others: How does racial injustice come into play in our field? There are many questions we can ask ourselves.

In many areas, why do works by Black artists sell for less than those of their white counterparts? On the flip side, it happens that the value of art that used to be the pride of Black communities has now ballooned to the point of making that work completely inaccessible to these communities. What so- cioeconomic classes does Black art inhabit?

Sometimes it happens that white artists’ work about Black lives gets more attention than Black artists’ work about their own lives. We should be aware of the white gaze — the ways Black art and artists are seen by white people through a lens of ethnocentrism and spectacle. Are we (white art professionals) basing our judgment and analysis of Black art on our own art-values Stephen Perloff: Anti-Rizzo Rally, Philadelphia, PA, July 24, 1978. Police systems? Are we making space for Black brutality has a long history in the United States. artists to contextualize their own work, their own lives? William Earle Williams: 54th Massachusetts Memorial, Inscription Side, Boston Common, Boston, Massachusetts, 2015. The memorial monument honoring the men of the 54th Massachusetts Regiment by American sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens was commissioned by its veterans and their supporters in 1883 and dedicated in 1897. This memorial has been acclaimed as the greatest American sculpture of the 19th century. It commemorates the valiant efforts of Colonel Robert Gould Shaw and the men of the 54th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry, the first Federal Government officially recognized Civil War regiment of African Americans enlisted in the North for the Union cause. Its location on Boston Common marks the spot where the regiment marched by the State House on May 28, 1863, as it left Boston to board sea trans- port for the South. The names of the black soldiers killed in action at Fort Wagner along with Shaw at the Battle of Fort Wagner on July 18, 1863, were not added to the inscription side of the monument until a 1981 restoration. Originally, only the five white officers killed were listed on the monument.

At a time of riots and looting over racial injustice, some are saying that many museums have themselves looted — frequently in the form of white archaeologists taking valuable artifacts from nonwhite countries. Where does Black art come from? Have Black artists, communities, and histories been respected and duly compensated for work an arts institution benefits from?

For centuries, museums have acquired less Black art and shown fewer exhibits with Black artists than their non-Black con- temporaries. African American history and art museums were the principal places to view Black artists’ work. Much progress has been made on this front but there is so much left to do. In which institutions does Black art live? Where is it visible?

And I would like to bring up the issue of staffing in institutions. Who is on the board? In the leadership positions? Are they mostly or all white? In contrast, who mops their floors?

Some of these questions will be very uncomfortable and difficult to confront, answer, or disrupt. But it is the job of non-Black people to ask ourselves these questions and work on their answers as best we can.

In the meantime, I encourage you to support Black-owned galleries. Artsy recently compiled a list; there’s one on Shoppe Black and another on Blavity — those could be a great place to start — as well as See in Black (see page 14). Attend African American history museums. Attend exhibits of Black artists. Support Black artists. Take time to educate yourself on Black art history as well as contemporary Black artists.

In solidarity,

Stephen Perloff

Thank you to Cressa Perloff for her help drafting this letter and contributing her insights and research to its development. Exhibitions

As many places are beginning to open up — by state, county, or city — many galleries and museums are opening or planning on opening soon, some with regular if reduced hours, some by ap- pointment only, and most if not all requiring the wearing of masks and providing hand sanitizer — hopefully from a reputable source, including maybe some distilleries that have shifted production, and not the poison ones coming from some sketchy places. So check the websites or call or email before you go to see a show. While the coronavirus has been controlled to some extent in some parts of the country, it is surging to a frightening extent in the South and West, especially in places that opened far too soon — and it is still out there everywhere. It is obvious that the current administration has been an abject failure in dealing with Covid-19. Europe, which has done a much better job of tamping down cases, is beginning to open its borders — but not to Americans. We are pariahs in the rest of the world. At least there’s a lot of great content online, some of it listed here. And if you want a really silly and diverting farce, check out Space Force with Steve Carell and John Malkovich on Netflix. Stay safe. Stephen Perloff

At the beginning of the shutdown, there was an article about my 1964 series Empty New York, when once I had loved the novelty of the early morning in New York, empty of activity. And now, 56 years later, I am amazed at how fast the city shut down. It has certainly been a time for introspection. I’ve been working on short films, about one minute each, that are about the virus, compiled into one sequence The Corona Follies. The idea for these films began when I recently went to the bank and found a long stick on the sidewalk, so I strutted down the street wav- ing it like a baton, all the way to the window of the bank. This led to my creation of the character of Bozo Boy, as Bozo Boy on Parade. I enjoy seeing what my ideas look like in real life, by generating my own energy through the character and working quickly, adapting as I go. I’ve always functioned on the principle of less purpose, more fun, and when times are stressful, it’s important to find and have fun. And I love it when something unexpected comes up. The best part is the discovery, and responding to and recognizing it. That’s what these films have been for me. I think the more serious you are, the more foolish you have to be, and you have to find ways to giggle. To Watch The Corona Follies click here.

This is the atmosphere in which I’ve created 11 sculptures, also new for me, and it’s been part of my meditation process.

I am pleased to announce the release of a new book of my work.

FELLOWSHIPS / RESIDENCIES / GRANTS LEEWAY FOUNDATION GRANTS The Leeway Foundation announced $42,500 in funding for 17 individual women, trans, and gender nonconforming artists and cultural producers in Greater Philadelphia, supporting their work to address a range of social change issues. The spring cycle of grantees highlights a trend in cultural preservation and disability justice with grantees from Philadelphia, Bucks, and Delaware County. In the wake of COVID-19, it is imperative to continue to support artists and activists in the Greater Philadelphia region in a way that is flexible and supportive of in- dividual needs. This round of grantees has the ability to use funds to support their work and to address immediate needs as a result of COVID-19. Leeway’s Art and Change Grant provides grants of up to $2,500 to fund art for social change projects by women and trans artists and cultural producers living in Greater Philadelphia. Two of the grantees will use photography in their projects. Maria Dumlao along with Larawan, will juxtapose histori- cal, mythical, and personal images of stories from the Filipino oral tradition with freshly staged and studio photographs. From these photos she will create color-coded multi-narrative collaged prints, a process that both reveals and obscures multiple stories, high- lighting and proposing alternatives to systemic representations of colonial narratives.

The Poetics of Light exhibition which featured the Pinhole Resource Collection opened at the museum in April, 2014, and ran for one and a half years. Poetics of Light later travelled to the National Media Museum in Bradford, England. With his wife and collaborator Nancy Spencer, Mr. Renner made photographs, built assemblages, and taught photography. The two directed Pinhole Resource, a clearinghouse and purveyor of books, supplies, and information on lensless photography. Between 1985 and 2006, they also published Pinhole Journal, a fine art peri- odical featuring pinhole images and relevant articles (https://www. pinholeresource.com/index.php/8-articles/1-pinhole-resource). Renner is represented by A Light Art Space in Silver City, New Mexico. Eric Renner was a rare and beautiful soul whose spirit will long remain in the minds of the many people whose lives he touched. He is remembered for his wild, crazy hair, engaging smile, colorful wardrobe, passion for pinhole photography, and his uplifting sense of humor. But above all else, he will be remem- bered for an aura that glowed with a persuasive, happy-in-his-own- skin surety that was both enviable and inspirational. Eric is survived by his wife Nancy Spencer, sister Susan Schoenfeld of Souderton, Pennsylvania; sons, Zephyr Renner of Albuquerque, New Mexico; and Yarian Renner of Los Angeles, California; stepchildren Yates Spencer of Lexington, Virginia; and Beth Spencer of Silver City, New Mexico; and her husband Abel Duffy; stepgrandchildren Ely Spencer, Gus Spencer, and Sam Spencer of Lexington, Virginia; and Milo Duffy of Silver City, New Mexico; cousin Evan Koch of Spirit Lake, Idaho; and dear friends Bolek Peplowski of Portland, Maine; Scott McMahon of Columbia, Missouri; and Nilu Izadi Nuthall of London, England.

He started the BFA program at the Corcoran and was head of the photography department at various times. Frank was an important and integral part of the Washington photo scene for decades. Everyone in DC was lucky to have him. DiPerna’s own works could be experimental and at times groundbreaking, as seen in his 2018 retrospective at the American University Museum. He exhibited widely throughout the Washington, DC, area and throughout the country. His work is in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, National Elsa Dorfman: My third day with the 20x24, 1987.

27 A Toast to Daile Kaplan, Swann’s Doyenne Emerita She has spoken about photography around the world, written A Letter from Nicholas D. Lowry countless articles, and is visible far beyond the community of June 26, 2020 photo enthusiasts due to regular, engaging appearances on the PBS television series Antiques Roadshow.

Daile’s work as a mentor within the photo market can best be exemplified by many of her former staffers who have gone on to populate the photography departments of other auction houses around America.

It would be an understatement to say that this is a bittersweet an- nouncement. It is hard to think that someone who I have known for longer than the duration of my professional career will no longer be right down the hall, with her expertise, knowledge, charm, kind- ness and humor.

Daile is very much part of the fabric and identity of this company. What is making this change easier for all of us is that Deborah Rogal, who has worked alongside Daile for 15 years, will be taking over leadership of our Photography Department. You will be hearing a whole lot more about Deborah in the coming weeks, but for now I would ask that you join Deborah Rogal me and the whole Swann family in saying thank you to Daile. Thank you for being a colleague nonpareil: A specialist, mentor, appraiser, collector, auctioneer, enthusiast and friend.

Sincerely, Nicho Nicholas D. Lowry President & Principal Auctioneer Daile Kaplan talking about vernacular photography at a sympo- sium at ArtYard in Frenchtown, NJ, in June 2019. (Photograph by Stephen Perloff)

In 1990 Germany was reunified, the Hubble Space telescope was launched, and it was the year I graduated from college. That year, thirteen paintings were stolen from the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, including works by Rembrandt, Vermeer and others, and a few months later Van Gogh’s portrait of Doctor Gachet sold at auction for $82.5 million, making it the most expensive painting in the world. It was also the year that Daile Kaplan began working at Swann Galleries. PHOTO REVIEW LISTING DEADLINES
