Passing Through Eden : Photographs of Central Park. No Customer Reviews. Passing Through Eden is a book of photographs that rewards the reader who both looks and thinks. It is carefully sequenced, with a selection of pictures depicting a real place, Central Park, in a deliberate and too-simply-labeled "documentary" style to approximate--at least in the first third of the book--a modern day visual parallel to the opening chapters of the book of Genesis. Look again without that "document"- tag; this book is pure fiction, the best sort of construct.

Text link to this page Michael Hoppen Contemporary presents Tod Papageorge - Passing Through Eden, on view 7th March â“ 19th April 2008. This will be the first UK solo exhibition of work by Tod Papageorge. Taken between 1969 and 1991, these black and white photographs capture the primeval character of Central Park, the human tragedy and comedy in this particular vision of Eden. During the 1970s, when Papageorge began to work on this series, Central Park was portrayed as a dangerous place not to be visited after dark. These photographs depict a different view showing innocence, beauty, ugliness, isolation, chaos and h These pictures, gathered in Passing Through Eden , convey the passion that Rosalind Krauss once described in Papageorge's work-embracing 'the sensuous richness of physical reality that fullness which Baudelaire used to call intimacy, when he meant eroticism.' From picture to picture, Papageorge constructs a world that resembles our own, but that also reminds us of Biblical paradise: Passing Through Eden is edited to parallel, in its first half, the opening chapters of Genesis-from the creation through the (metaphorical) generations that follow on from Cain-before giving over to.

    FY 15 ANNUAL REPORT August 1, 2014- July 31, 2015 1 THE PHILLIPS COLLECTION FY15 Annual Report THE PHILLIPS [IS] A MULTIDIMENSIONAL INSTITUTION THAT CRAVES COLOR, CONNECTEDNESS, A PIONEERING SPIRIT, AND PERSONAL EXPERIENCES 2 THE PHILLIPS COLLECTION FY15 Annual Report FROM THE CHAIRMAN AND DIRECTOR This is an incredibly exciting time to be involved with The Phillips Collection. Duncan Phillips had a deep understanding of the “joy-giving, life-enhancing influence” of art, and this connection between art and well-being has always been a driving force. Over the past year, we have continued to push boundaries and forge new paths with that sentiment in mind, from our art acquisitions to our engaging educational programming. Our colorful new visual identity—launched in fall 2014—grew out of the idea of the Phillips as a multidimensional institution, a museum that craves color, connectedness, a pioneering spirit, and personal experiences. Our programming continues to deepen personal conversations with works of art. Art and Wellness: Creative Aging, our collaboration with Iona Senior Services has continued to help participants engage personal memories through conversations and the creating of art. Similarly, our award-winning Contemplation Audio Tour encourages visitors to harness the restorative power of art by deepening their relationship with the art on view. With Duncan Phillips’s philosophies leading the way, we have significantly expanded the collection. The promised gift of 18 American sculptors’ drawings from Trustee Linda Lichtenberg Kaplan, along with the gift of 46 major works by contemporary German and Danish artists from Michael Werner, add significantly to new possibilities that further Phillips’s vision of vital “creative conversations” in our intimate galleries.

The exhibition, containing rarely exhibited works by artists such as Louis Faurer, Sid Gross­ man, Robert Frank, Leon Levinstein, Helen Levitt, and Lisette Model, is di­ rected by Peter Collins, Curatorial Intern, Department of Photography. Peter Collins states that "the common denominator among the 11 photo­ graphers shown here is their extension of a style that flourished in the 1930's and was loosely labeled documentary." NEW STANDPOINTS: PHOTOGRAPHY 1940- 1955 illustrates the shift in emphasis in documentary photography from the essentially socio-political motivation of the 30's to a clearer understand­ ing of the formal basis of the photograph. "Young photographers," Collins continues, "examining the work of the preceeding generation found in the best of it, especially in the work of Walker Evans and Cartier-Bresson, an ever- present vitality. In a Walker Evans interior, a calendar on a wall could lock the content of a picture to a specific day in history, but it was the perfect juxtaposition of forms within the frame itself which signified the present tense. "I once asked the photographer Louis Faurer how the work of these two photographers had affected him. Of Evans he said that the work exhibited a perfect truthfulness and that the interesting thing about Bresson was that he came so close to recognizing the subconscious.

The term ‘vintage’ in photography - like in other discipli- nes - implies a certain age, authenticity and value. But what does it mean exactly? A vintage print is a photographic print made shortly after the creation of the negative. This is not Provenances an exact science: roughly, a gap of a few years between the Kahmann negative and its first print is allowed, but ten years is not.

    FRAMING IDEAS Landscape and Place Images from the collection of the MoCP for classroom use. This image set corresponds with a curriculum guide that can be found at http://www.mocp.org/education/resources-for- educators.php These resources were created with special support from the Terra Foundation for American Art. Ansel Adams Bridalveil Fall, Yosemite National Park, California, n.d. Ansel Adams Gunlock, Washington County, Utah, 1953 Ansel Adams El Capitan, Yosemite National Park, California, 1956 Ansel Adams (American, 1902-1984) Ansel Adams’s documentation of the western landscape has taken on iconic significance as one of the defining purist visions of both the American West and of the photographic medium. Images such as this one, taken within the National Park System, have frequently been used to promote tourism and preservation of the landscapes they portray. El Capitan is a subject Adams photographed repeatedly, using the mountain’s towering presence to signify the sublime and unfathomable vastness of nature. Compositionally, Adams tends to frame these monuments of nature so that their iconic character is evoked, and to this aim, he avoids including the tourists and signs of habitation that surround the sites. Born in San Francisco in 1902, Adams began working as an official photographer for the Sierra Club in 1928. In 1932 he and other California-based photographers, including Edward Weston, founded the group f64, which maintained an interest in the technically perfect photographic print. The name f64 is a reference to the smallest standardized aperture setting on the camera’s lens; photographs taken on this setting have the greatest depth of field meaning that nearly every object in the picture plane is in perfect focus.

  • 20Th-Cent. Portraits #2 Press Release 2.23.19
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 20th-Century Portraits February 1 – March 30, 2019 Deborah Bell Photographs is pleased to present an exhibition of portraits by American and European photographers of the 20th Century. Photographers whose works are on view include Erwin Blumenfeld, Louis Faurer, G.P. Fieret, Hiro, Rose Mandel, Marcia Resnick, August Sander, and Deborah Turbeville. Uniting many of the various images selected is the photographers' use of dramatic lighting and innovative, experimental printing techniques, resulting in captivating, and often abstract or even surreal, renditions of their subjects in ordinary contexts. Erwin Blumenfeld (American, b. Germany 1897; d. 1969) Erwin Blumenfeld was born in Berlin, where he practiced photography as a young boy. From 1916-1918 he served as an ambulance driver in the German army. He began to write and paint at the time when the German Dada movement was becoming established. In 1918 Blumenfeld moved to Holland, where he was involved with the Dada movement in Amsterdam; four years later he opened a leather goods shop, the Fox Leather Company, on the fashionable Kalverstraat. In 1932 Blumenfeld moved Fox to a new location, where he discovered a darkroom in the back of the store that was left by a previous occupant, and began taking photographs again. During this period Blumenfeld's photographs and art became well known, and his work was included in two exhibitions at the modern art gallery Kunstzaal Van Lier in Amsterdam in 1932 and 1933, the second of which, "Dutch Faces," consisted of 50 photographic portraits. Blumenfeld's shop went bankrupt in 1935, and in 1936 he left Holland to establish himself in Paris as a professional photographer.

  • Sid Grossman January 12 – February 11, 2017
    For Immediate Release Sid Grossman January 12 – February 11, 2017 Sid Grossman, Coney Island (couple embracing), 1947 Gelatin silver print, printed c.1947, 7 1/2 X 7 7/8 inches NEW YORK – The first solo exhibition in 30 years to explore the legacy of Sid Grossman (1913 – 1955) will be on view at Howard Greenberg Gallery from January 12 – February 11, 2017. The exhibition coincides with the publication of a new monograph, The Life and Work of Sid Grossman, published by Steidl/Howard Greenberg Library, with an essay by the curator and photo historian Keith F. Davis. An opening exhibition will be held on Thursday, January 12, from 6 to 8 p.m. In a short career, ended by his untimely death at age 42, New York native Sid Grossman left an indelible mark as an artist and teacher on the photography of his era and beyond. In 1936, Grossman and his friend Sol Libsohn co-founded the Photo League, the left-leaning, socially conscious photographers’ cooperative and school. Photographing at a very close distance and using blur and off-kilter compositions, Grossman’s work of the late 1940s anticipates the work of many better known street photographers of the 1950s and 60s. “Grossman’s vision of creative photography changed the lives of many around him and resulted in a body of work of major historical importance,” Davis writes in the book. Among the many photographers who were taught or influenced directly by Grossman are Sy Kattelson, Leon Levinstein, and Lisette Model. More broadly, traits of Grossman’s work and philosophy can be seen in the work of Ted Croner, Roy DeCarava, Louis Faurer, Robert Frank, William Klein, and Saul Leiter as well as Garry Winogrand and a younger generation of 1960s artists.
