BLUE SKY ANNOUNCES NEW EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
Blue Sky Gallery is pleased to announce that Lisa DeGrace
has accepted the position of Executive Director, effective December 2, 2015. DeGrace has spent her career working in nonprofits in
Oregon and SW Washington in various leadership and fundraising
positions. Over the past 20 years, she has gained a clear vision of
what makes nonprofits — particularly arts organizations — thrive.
DeGrace served as the Director of Foundation Relations at the

DeGrace remarked, “I admire Blue Sky’s deep roots in the local and national arts scene, its collaborative tradition, and its commitment to the photographers who show their work at Blue Sky.
As Portland’s art scene continues to grow and change, Blue Sky,
with its 40-year history, has a unique voice in this landscape. I’m

CELEBRATE THE OPENING OF THE MET BREUER
CPW NAMES NEW DIRECTOR
Following a competitive national search, the Center for Photography at Woodstock (CPW) has appointed Hannah Frieser as its
new Executive Director. CPW Founder and Board Chair Howard
Greenberg said, “Hannah joins CPW at an exciting time. I’m
thrilled and extremely confident that we’ve found someone with
the very particular set of experiences CPW most needs.”
As the former director of Light Work in Syracuse, Hannah
Frieser not only has extensive nonprofit management experience,
but she is also familiar with the challenges of generating national
attention in the more remote reaches of upstate New York. At Light
Work, Frieser found numerous curatorial opportunities to expand
exhibitions beyond the gallery, including additional venues and
area billboards.
Ms. Frieser follows Ariel Shanberg’s twelve-year tenure as
CPW’s executive director, during which the organization received
a Lucie Spotlight Award for significantly altering the landscape
of photography, the 2014 Ulster County Executive’s Award for
Arts Organization, and Artinfo listed CPW’s residency program
WOODSTOCK A-I-R among the top 20 residencies in the U.S.
Frieser’s decade-plus tenure as staff and then board of the
Society of Photographic Education (SPE) is in part distinguished
by her development of conference capacity. She also co-chaired the
2010 SPE National Conference themed “Facing Diversity...” with
Miriam Romais of En Foco, and chaired the 2011 SPE Regional
Northeast and Mid-Atlantic Conference themed “Photographers +
Publishing.”
FotoFest, Rhubarb Rhubarb, Photolucida, PhotoVisa, folioPORT, and FotoTriennale.dk, among others, have sought Hannah
Frieser’s insights as a reviewer, juror, and speaker worldwide.
She also served as a panelist for the New York State Council on
the Arts for several years. Together with Charles Guice, Frieser is
currently developing an online initiative to promote dialogue about
contemporary photography from global perspectives.
“For almost forty years, the Center for Photography at Woodstock has been a vibrant part of New York’s art community,” said
Frieser. “CPW has created countless opportunities for artists working in photography, while bringing diverse and unique programs to
the Hudson Valley region. It is a privilege to join the Center at this

evolution, such as the American “photo boom” of the 1960s and
1970s. “Look Inside” showcases groundbreaking photographs by
artists who transformed the medium during that period, including
Thomas F. Barrow, Betty Hahn [see cover], Kenneth Josephson,
Nathan Lyons, Ray K. Metzker, and Keith Smith. The exhibition
features important works by Lee Friedlander and Robert F. Heinecken, the first by those artists to enter the Center’s collection.
“Look Inside” also highlights contemporary works that
function in dialog with the Center’s rich historical holdings. Featuring artists who explore and challenge the fundamental materials, processes and questions that occupied the imaginations of
photography’s inventors, the exhibition includes works by artists
Marco Breuer, John Chiara, Chris McCaw, Alison Rossiter, and
Penelope Umbrico. Considering the Center’s extensive holdings of
20th-century reportage as a historical point of reference, the exhibition features selections from extended documentary projects by
contemporary artists Alejandro Cartagena, LaToya Ruby Frazier,
Louie Palu, and Alec Soth.
Beyond showcasing the Center’s growing photography collection, “Look Inside” offers a window into the day-to-day activities
of a dynamic archive, library, and museum and invites visitors to
learn more about collecting practice. The exhibition examines how
and why the Center selects particular photographs, highlighting the
value of the Center’s relationships with artists, donors, and community partners. The exhibition highlights significant gifts, as well
as a selection of photographs that entered the collection with the
archives of writers who counted photographers among their creative peers.
The photography collection at the Ransom Center contains
more than 5 million prints and negatives. Founded upon the worldrenowned Gernsheim collection, purchased in 1963, the collection has especially strong holdings in 19th-century photography.
Working archives of photographers David Douglas Duncan, Eliot
Elisofon, James H. “Jimmy” Hare, Arnold Newman, Anne Noggle,
and E. O. Goldbeck reveal the dynamism and growth of the institution’s collection. With examples of works representing intellectual,
social and creative movements in the history of the medium, the
collection’s scope makes it an international resource for the study
and appreciation of photography.
“The Ransom Center’s photography holdings are vast and
span from the very earliest 19th-century practitioners up to the
most innovative contemporary figures who are redefining the art
today,” says Ransom Center Director Stephen Enniss. “‘Look
Inside: New Photography Acquisitions’ offers visitors a deeper
understanding of photographic practice and at the same time shows
how we are extending this rich history by capturing the visual
imagination at play today.”
The exhibition will be on view in the Ransom Center Galleries Mondays through Fridays, 10–5, with extended Thursday hours
until 7 p.m. On Saturdays and Sundays the galleries are open from
noon–5. The exhibition is free and open to the public. Daily public
tours are offered at noon, Thursdays at 6 p.m. and Saturdays and
Sundays at 2 p.m.
a.m. – 5:30 p.m.) with special programs and events for visitors of
all ages.
“The reopening of Marcel Breuer’s iconic building on Madison Avenue represents an important chapter in the cultural life of
New York City,” said Thomas P. Campbell, Director and CEO of
The Metropolitan Museum of Art. “Whether frequent or first-time
visitors to our Fifth Avenue building or The Cloisters, we look
forward to welcoming everyone to The Met Breuer, which will
provide an unparalleled opportunity to experience modern and
contemporary art through the lens of the historical and global Met
collection.”
Sheena Wagstaff, the Leonard A. Lauder Chairman of the
Met’s Department of Modern and Contemporary Art, added:
“With the launch of The Met Breuer in March, we are honoring
the history of this beloved building and embracing its significance
to the cultural landscape of our city as we infuse it with the Met’s
curatorial spirit for the public to enjoy. For our inaugural season,
we have developed a far-reaching program that explores themes
that stretch across history, geography, and art forms. Great works
of art can transcend both time and place, as our program will
powerfully demonstrate.” The Met Breuer’s program will spotlight
modern and contemporary art in dialogue with historic works that
embrace the full range and reach of the Museum’s collection. The
building will host both monographic and thematic exhibitions, as
well as new commissions and performances. The two inaugural
exhibitions at The Met Breuer will be: a major, cross-departmental
curatorial initiative, Unfinished: Thoughts Left Visible, including
works by some of the greatest artists of all time, ranging from Titian to Louise Bourgeois, who experimented with a non finito style;
and the largest exhibition to date dedicated to Indian modernist
Nasreen Mohamedi. Additionally, a music installation by resident
artist Vijay Iyer will activate The Met Breuer’s lobby gallery. Photography will also be a cornerstone of The Met Breuer’s program,
including a presentation of early photographs by Diane Arbus,
opening in July, that is primarily drawn from the Museum’s Diane
Arbus Archive (July 12 – November 27, 2016); and, in the fall,
a series of commissioned architectural photographs that document four seminal public buildings designed by Marcel Breuer. In
October, culminating The Met Breuer’s inaugural season, will be
the first major survey in the U.S. of Kerry James Marshall, whose
work asserts the place of the black figure within the narrative of
Western painting. These programs will all take place within an
iconic building that has been renovated and restored with architect
Marcel Breuer’s original design vision in mind and will support an
integrated experience of art and architecture.
More information about The Met Breuer’s program is available online here. A detailed history of the Breuer building is also
available on the Met’s website.
“LOOK INSIDE” AT THE RANSOM CENTER
The Harry Ransom Center, a humanities research library and
museum at The University of Texas at Austin, presents the exhibition “Look Inside: New Photography Acquisitions,” February 9
to May 29, 2016. Introducing nearly 200 of the Ransom Center’s
newest acquisitions, “Look Inside” traces photography from its
post-war expansion to its central position in contemporary art.
Organized by Jessica S. McDonald, the Nancy Inman and
Marlene Nathan Meyerson Curator of Photography, “Look Inside”
demonstrates the Center’s commitment to building a photography
collection spanning the history of photography and representing a
wealth of approaches to the medium.
“The photography collection at the Harry Ransom Center is
continually growing,” says McDonald. “Enriching our holdings of
20th- and 21st-century photographs is one key aspect of our effort
to provide a broad range of research opportunities for students,
scholars and many other visitors.”
Recent additions have strengthened the collection’s holdings
of works made during vibrant periods in the medium’s artistic
THE G2 GALLERY OPENS SPECIAL YEAR-LONG SERIES
On January 12, 2016, The G2 Gallery in Venice, CA, will premiere 100 Years of National Parks: The North East, the first in a
four-part special exhibit series celebrating the 100-year anniversary
of the National Park Service. The inaugural show will also include
the complete Portfolio II from Ansel Adams.
The National Park Service (NPS) was founded in 1916 and
oversees hundreds of parks, historic sites, landmarks, museums,
trails, and more. In The North East, images of NPS-maintained
areas from Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire,

New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Vermont
will be on display.
“Someone once called our National Parks, ‘America’s Best
Idea,’ and we wanted to spend an entire year of photo exhibits celebrating that sentiment,” says G2 Curator Jolene Hanson.
Artists from all over the country submitted their photographs,
and after a selection process that gave anonymity to the images,
nine were chosen: Timothy S. Allen, Peter Baumgartner, Michael
Darough, Kevin Ebi, Rich Greene, Rick Kattelmann, Vidya Narasimhan, Rusty Nelson, and Scott Tansey.
Alongside the images of Acadia National Park, Great Egg
Harbor, and other northeastern sites will be Ansel Adams’s Portfolio II: The National Parks and Monuments. The collection, acquired by G2 in 2009, is one of only 100 editions in the world; one
of even fewer where the entire portfolio is intact. Printed in 1950,
the striking collection includes images of national parks from the
arid sands of Death Valley to the icy grasses of Glacier Bay.
The opening reception for 100 Years of National Parks: The
North East, along with Portfolio II from Ansel Adams, will be held
on January 16 from 6:30 to 9:00 p.m. Admission is $10 at the door
and includes wine, hors d’oeuvres, and complimentary valet in
front of the gallery. All proceeds from admissions will be donated
to National Parks Conservation Association. RSVP to [email protected].
its presentation at the High from February 28 through May 29,
2016.
Muniz is distinguished as one of the most innovative and
creative artists of the 21st century. Renowned for creating what he
calls “photographic delusions,” Muniz works with a dizzying array
of unconventional materials — including sugar, tomato sauce, diamonds, magazine clippings, chocolate syrup, dust, and junk — to
painstakingly design narrative subjects before recording them with
his camera. His resulting photographs often quote iconic images
from popular culture and the history of art while defying easy classification and playfully engaging a viewer’s process of perception.
His more recent work utilizes electron microscopes and manipulates microorganisms to unveil both the familiar and the strange in
spaces that are typically inaccessible to the human eye.
Muniz’s wide-ranging inventions will be amply represented
in the exhibition, which is the most significant and comprehensive to date that weaves together the diverse phases of the artist’s
career. Recent work will include large photographs created using
thousands of found anonymous snapshots, which are arranged to
reference images from Muniz’s own family albums. As in some
of the artist’s other series, these works communicate ideas related
directly to the materials from which they are constructed. By visually conveying how changes in technology and the rise of digital
photography have made family images less treasured and more
commonplace, the photographs speak to the impact of these shifts
on experience and memory.
Other featured recent work will include prints from Muniz’s
“Colonies” series, for which the artist collaborated with MIT scientists to employ microorganisms, including bacteria and even cancer
cells, to multiply in choreographed designs. In these photographs,
Muniz morphs the frightening into the beautiful, producing striking, intricate patterns from materials with largely negative connotations. The “Colonies” photographs also follow Muniz’s affinity for
bringing attention to social issues though his work—in this case,
the importance of medical research and vaccination.
New photographs on view will include examples from
Muniz’s “Sand Castles” series, for which he built the world’s
smallest sandcastles using a scanning electron microscope to etch
micro-drawings of castles on individual grains of sand. These
photographs demonstrate Muniz’s continued interest in experimentations with scale —rather than featuring massive constructions
photographed from a heightened vantage point, these sandcastle
“drawings” are less than half a millimeter in length. The photographs also return to the artist’s oft-examined theme of well-known
subjects viewed in unexpected ways.
The High and the Foundation for the Exhibition of Photography developed the exhibition in collaboration with curator Arthur
Ollman, photographer, professor, and founding director of the Museum of Photographic Arts in San Diego.

In the last seven years at the Clark, one of only a few institutions in the United States that is both a museum and a center for
research and scholarship in the visual arts, Loughman spearheaded
several initiatives aimed at raising awareness of the museum and
its collections on a global spectrum. He was the driving force
behind the museum’s first international touring exhibition, “Great
French Paintings from the Clark,” which brought the heart of that
institution’s collections to more than 3.5 million visitors at 11 sites
in Europe, North America, and Asia. That project enabled a series
of exchange relationships that Loughman stewarded with major
international institutions, including the Museo Nacional del Prado
in Madrid and the Shanghai Museum.

is involved with both the American Alliance of Museums (AAM)
and the Association of Art Museum Directors (AAMD).
Prior to his work at the Clark, Loughman served as the Curator of European Art and the Assistant to the Director for Exhibitions at the Phoenix Art Museum in Phoenix, AZ.; earlier he was
a National Endowment for the Arts Curatorial Fellow, Department
of Prints, Drawings, and Photographs at the Philadelphia Museum
of Art in Philadelphia, PA; held teaching positions at Pennsylvania
State University and elsewhere; and worked in various roles at the
Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston, MA, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, Williams College Museum
of Art in Williamstown, MA, and the National Gallery of Art in
Washington, DC.
Loughman holds a Ph.D. in Art History from Rutgers University, an M.A. from the Clark/Williams College Graduate Program
in the History of Art and an A.B. from Georgetown University.
He is a J. William Fulbright Fellow, a Samuel H. Kress Foundation Travel Fellow, a Rutgers University Dissertation Fellow and a
Rutgers University Excellence Fellow. Loughman also attended the
Museum Leadership Institute at the Getty Center in Los Angeles,
CA, in 2008.

Art in Porto João Ribas and acclaimed Paris-based artist Mohamed
Bourouissa. The public vote, to decide the winner, opened on September 9, 2015, and closed at 11:59 p.m. on November 29, 2015.
“The artists on this year’s shortlist deeply impressed the jurors
and I’m gratified to see that their work resonated with the public
as well,” said Judy Koke, the AGO’s Chief of Public Programming
and Learning. “People voted in the thousands, which underscores
the intrigue created by the historical and philosophical questions
each artist asks in their work. On behalf of the AGO, I congratulate
Dave Jordano and thank each of the artists for bringing their forceful, distinctive visions to Toronto.”
Previous winners of the Aimia | AGO Photography Prize
include Lisa Oppenheim of the U.S. (2014), Canada’s Erin
Shirreff (2013), Jo Longhurst of the U.K. (2012), Gauri Gill

AWARDS continued
2015 JOHN GUTMANN PHOTOGRAPHY FELLOWSHIP
The San Francisco Foundation announced that Suné Woods of
Los Angeles, CA, and Dru Donovan of Brooklyn, NY, are the winners of the 2015 John Gutmann Photography Fellowship, an annual
award given to up to two emerging artists who exhibit professional
accomplishment, serious artistic commitment, and need in the field
of creative photography.
The prestigious award, established by the photographer John
Gutmann (1905–1998) at The San Francisco Foundation, brings
with it $5,000 to each awardee to support the development of their
creative work. Eminent photographers and curators Reagan Louie,
Jim Goldberg, and Leland Rice were this year’s jurors.
“This year’s nominees were all impressive and strong, making
our choices difficult, as reflected in the decision to split the grant.
I was impressed by the accomplishment and ambition of Suné
Woods’s and Dru Donovan’s work. What ultimately persuaded me
was both their work is at a tipping point. I am confident that the
award will help them realize the full potential of their work,” said
Reagan Louie, Gutmann Fellowship juror and photography professor at San Francisco Art Institute.
Suné Woods is interested in how language is emoted, guarded,
and translated through the absence/presence of a physical body
within cultural and social histories. Her work takes the form of
multi-channel video installations, photographs, and collage. She
also uses microsomal sites such as family to understand larger
sociological phenomenon, imperialist mechanisms, and formations
of knowledge. “Suné Woods’ deeply personal and transformative
work is revelatory in its quietude,” said Jim Goldberg, photographer and professor of photography at the California College of Art.
“Her multimedia montages navigate presence and absence with
touching directness and perceptive complexity, creating a new language that captivates through empathic synthesis.”
NEW ADDRESS FOR TPS
The Texas Photographic Society has a new address. Formerly
located at PMB 174, 6338 N. New Braunfels, San Antonio, TX
78209, their new mailing address is now P.O. Box 2094, Frisco,
TX 75034.
BOOKS
THE BAND PHOTOGRAPHS
Dru Donovan: Mohamed, Positions Taken, 2015, inkjet print, 24"x30"
Dru Donovan uses the human body as a vehicle for portraying
emotional desires. Her photographs investigate human experiences,
both in real-time and reinvented through actors and props, where
the body is the main source of narrative weight. Jim Goldberg observed, “Dru Donovan’s interactive restagings of real situations are
palpably challenging and painfully relevant, offering a cinematic
entrance into human struggle. Using smart visual language, her
photographs captivate our attention through imaginations of the all
too real.”
Elliott Landy is offering first edition versions of The Band
Photographs, 1968–1969. The book is 160 pages, 12"x12",
hardcover. It features more than 200 photographs documenting the
Band during the time they made their first two albums, Music from
Big Pink and The Band. More than half have never been published
before. Elliott’s Kickstarter campaign to fund the creation of the
book was the highest-funded for a photography book in Kickstarter’s history.

KHARKIV SCHOOL OF PHOTOGRAPHY: FROM SOVIET
CENSORSHIP TO NEW AESTHETICS
In the early 1970s, resisting the aesthetic criteria imposed by
the doctrine of socialist realism, eight photographers in Kharkiv
created images free from predetermined ideological prescriptions.
Joining efforts in fighting the Soviet aesthetic canon they formed
the Vremya group. For 15 years, despite censorship and persecution by all sorts of ideological watchdogs from official art critics to

BOOKS continued
the KGB, who would search their darkrooms and apartments, and
despite the closing of exhibitions, the artists managed to secretly
create and exhibit new art.
They started the fight for artistic freedom by trying to look
behind the ideological façade of socialist realism. They pictured
food shortage queues, drunks and whores, the hypocrisy of May
Day demonstrations, and the pomp of Victory Day parades. They
portrayed ugliness, nudity, and lust. But the artists were soon to
discover that at least one of the socialist realist dogmas — stating
the “inextricable connection” between form and content — was,
after all, true, and that the conventional means of art photography
expression were not good enough for the sought-after thematic
novelty. Thus, the search for a new visual language and imagery in
Kharkiv fine art photography began.
This e-publication demonstrates the evolution of Kharkiv
School visual language over four decades of its life. The publication traces the formal side of the language (overlays, photomontage, and post production techniques), and shows the approaches
that were commonly used and shared among the Kharkiv artists in
their collective oeuvre. Each part is preceded by a short description and a list of artists. The illustrations are linked to the artists’
online portfolios. The catalog provides excerpts from the essays
and screen grabs of video pages linked to the corresponding online
essay and video pages.

WORKSHOPS / RESIDENCES / TRAVEL
A PEEK BEHIND-THE-SCENES:
INSIDE THE PHOTO GALLERIES WITH ALICE ZIMET
This class goes behind-the-scenes to commercial photography
galleries to better understand the fine art marketplace and to offer
tips on how to break in. We’ll go to galleries located on the Lower
East Side, Chelsea, 57th Street, and on the Upper East Side where
we’ll look at images firsthand and up close. More importantly, we
will have a frank discussion with owners and sales associates about
how galleries work with artists.
Topics include:
• How do galleries find new talent?
• How is price determined and how are the proceeds split?
• What is the preferred approach by a photographer?
• What is the worst thing a photographer can do?
• Do they do portfolio reviews, and, if so, how often and
when?
• Do they have written or just verbal agreements?
Because communicating with galleries and others in the field
is so important, assignments include class critique of your business
cards and other print materials as well as to hypothetically identify
the “right” gallery for you and to defend that choice.
COST: $450
DATES: 6 Saturdays: 1/9,1/23, 2/6, 2/20, 3/5, 3/19
TIME: 11 a.m. – 2 p.m.
LOCATION: First class meets at the International Center of
Photography School, 1114 6th Avenue (between 42nd and 43rd
Streets)

PROPOSALS
The VASA Journal on Images and Culture is interested in proposals that address the potential and impact of the e-book — specifically photography and media e-books. Proposals may address
issues related to the disappearance of the object, challenges, history, and possibilities related to the evolution of the e-book. VJIC
is interested in manuscripts, examples, video talks, and downloadables that make an argument or take a position on the impact of
e-books on aesthetics, forms of production and dissemination, and
the shifting paradigm of control, bypassing the usual avenues of
publication and dissemination. Accepted proposals will be published in the VASA Journal on Images and Culture. VASA/VJIC
currently has over 5,000 international members who will have the
opportunity to view/read your published work. For more information go to VJIC theme proposals.

ADVANCED PHOTO EDITING WORKSHOP WITH
ELIZABETH AVEDON & MAGDALENA SOLE, MAY 1–6
In the world of fine art and documentary photography it is
essential that work is well edited. Whether preparing for portfolio
reviews, book proposals, gallery shows, or a magazine story, a
solid foundation in the fundamentals of editing and sequencing are
essential skills in the current art market. In this six-day workshop,
Elizabeth Avedon partners with photographer Magdalena Solé to
help you hone your eye for efficient self-editing. Learn to edit large
bodies of your work in a practical way towards selection of the
best images; how to quickly differentiate between good pictures
and those that are not and why; create a consistent look or a narrative theme; and work on sequencing.
The workshop will be held at Magdalena Solé’s studio in West
Halifax, VT, located in the beautiful rural countryside of Southern
Vermont in an old 1790’s farmhouse. Participants may stay in the
nearby quaint town of Wilmington.
You will work in individual and group sessions with author
and photographer Magdalena Solé, and independent curator and
book designer Elizabeth Avedon:
