Amie Siegel

Black Moon/Hole punch works

The name of the artist I couldn't remember yesterday in class is Amie Siegel. Check out her work here!

she not only does photo, but is a film maker....shooting 16mm and HDR formats.

I really love her Black Moon/ Hole Punch works. Here's a taste for you!

Amie Siegel, Black Moon/Hole punch, #6, 2010

"The second element is a series of photographs, “Black Moon / Hole Punches”, derived from the hole punches, or black moons, typically cut by the motion picture laboratory into the first frame of action in film negative. Always left out of the final edited film, these hole punches appear in Siegel’s prints as imperfect black disks or voids cut out of film frames. They are evocative of lunar phases, yet strangely violent in their intercession into the otherwise smooth picture plane. As metaphors of the filmic endeavor itself, the set of images expose the film’s own production in a fragmentary manner, while re-capitulating its latent violence and re-use of aesthetic ruins." (from the essay on her website)

So apparently Bob Dylan REALLY loves photos!

Bob Dylan paintings come under fire

(Yahoo Article)

• 

Bob Dylan faced uncomfortable questions Wednesday over several paintings in a New York exhibition by the prolific singer-songwriter that appear to have been copied directly from other artists' photographs.

The paintings are part of a show at the Gagosian Gallery titled "The Asia Series," billed as "a visual reflection on his travels in Japan, China, Vietnam, and Korea."

According to the Gagosian, the art work, which went on display earlier this month, shows how Dylan "is inspired by everyday phenomena in such a way that they appear fresh, new, and mysterious."

But Dylan watchers and an article in The New York Times highlight another mystery behind the exhibition: that several paintings supposedly reflecting Dylan's globe-trotting artistic career are nearly identical to already published photographs.

For example, a painting titled "Trade," showing two elderly men bent over while talking, and one of them holding a banknote, is the same as a black and white photograph by famed photographer Henri Cartier-Bresson taken in 1948, the Times pointed out.  Even the lines on the foreheads of the men are similar, as is the short flight of steps in the background.

Another apparently copied painting is titled "Opium" and depicts a dark-haired woman in red lying down alongside opium paraphernalia. The same scene -- in the same colors -- appears in Leon Busy's photo "Woman Smoking Opium."

A third painting "The Game," depicting three men playing a board game, is the same as a 1950 photograph by Dmitri Kessel.

The gallery shrugged off any possibility of controversy, saying in a statement that "the composition of some of Bob Dylan's paintings are based on a variety of sources."  These include "archival, historic images, the paintings' vibrancy and freshness come from the colors and textures found in everyday scenes he observed."  Some Dylan fans concurred.

"Everybody does that. In painting, music, literature. Everyone is always riffing on what someone did before them," one person going by the online name the_revelator posted on the fan site expectingrain.com.

"People who are completely original are extremely rare. Almost all art is derivative. I don't like Bob's work any less because of all the influences and the appropriation," the_revelator said.

But the revelation was more disturbing for others in the world of Dylan followers.

"I guess it's because he gets away with it when others don't as much... maybe that is what aggravates me the most," said one commentator called Milkcow wrote.  Milkcow went on to express deeper reservations about the voice and writer behind many of the world's most popular ballads.

"I was listening to his 60s songs... and really was blown away by his lyrics especially for how old he was when he wrote them.... but then you find whole things snagged from other people's stuff... the same thing he hates when people do it to him."

The longest exposures in history....

I came across this blog which showcases the works of Michael Wesely, a german photographer who has made the longest exposures recorded! Some are 3 years long!

check his work out here on his website, but check out the blog 'itchyi" below for some instant gratification, where you can see his work!

http://www.itchyi.co.uk/thelatest/2010/7/20/the-longest-photographic-exposures-in-history.html

He documented the reconstruction of the Museum of Modern Art over a 3 year period and set up 12 cameras in different spots to record it....all with the shutter open!
Interesting stuff. The first entry on that blog was a post from last year that said that Justin Quinnell's long exposures were indeed the longest. Apparently Wesley's work has pipped that for sure!

Here is an image of the MoMA during the 3 years it was being rebuilt. Pretty cool!

So this isn't quite photo related but it's incredible!

The Eyes are the first to go....DH Cooper

Hey Peeps,
remember a couple of weeks ago I told you about my friend DH Cooper who panhandled for money for plastic surgery in Chicago? Well, she's put it up on Vimeo.

Check it out by clicking the following!

"The Eyes Are The First To Go"


"This video is a personal exploration into culture’s notions of youth and beauty, and how it affects me as a newly middle aged woman. The pressure to maintain my youthful appearance drives me out into the streets to ask for donations for a face-lift.
Juxtaposed with the humorous black and white spy cam footage on the street are color narratives and commentary from me. The viewer hears me dealing with my issues of desirability and mortality as I grapple with whether to succumb to the plastic surgery knife".

Color Paper for the RA4 Machine

Hello Folks!
Here is a link to the B&H site for color paper.
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/buy/Color/ci/801/N/4288586367
Here is an image of the various surfaces that B&H have for sale. Also, for those really interested in printing larger, I included a mural roll....30 inches wide.....and the prices for all:

also, here are the reduced hours of B&H over the next couple of weeks (thanks to Danit!):

So, to be clear, Tony has advised us, that if there is the demand from students, he is prepared to keep the color machine running for the semester. I think this is incredible! Please make it known to Tony that you appreciate it by saying so when you pass him in the hall.

thanks,

Annie
ps. I can see this doesn't look very clear. I shall send both to you via email.

GE CT scans

I found this somewhere recently and I found it extremely awesome.
It's a video made by GE where they are putting how their new CT scan machines work into visual images that make it easier for people who aren't familiar with how body parts look when they've been....CT....scanned..........
Anyway, it's a very well done video that has some amazing imagery done in it and is a fascinating idea and great way to show it to the general public.

Charlie Rose and Nan Goldin interview

Just came across this interview that Charlie Rose did with Nan Goldin from 1996. Check it out!!

Curator Elisabeth Sussman, author and cultural critic Luc Sante, and photographer Nan Goldin discuss Goldin's photography exhibit at the Whitney Museum of Art, "Nan Goldin: I'll Be Your Mirror".

Michael Eastman

Here's some of Michael Eastman's work. I know Annie mentioned his work. 'Cuba' has always been my favorite series from him so I thought I'd share my favorite images from that series. To me, he uses decaying grand buildings to tell the story of Cuba's past, and how the space is currently being used to show where Cuba has gone since Castro. It's really pretty sad, but beautiful. There is still a sense of pride in the air (or should I say orgullo!...it just sounds better in spanish) that I think is evident in the images and also in the Cuban people. It is their history told in a beautiful way. 

Arturo Herrera

Hey guys, just wanted to share this artist with everyone.  I cannot find the clip on YouTube where he discusses his use of film but what he does is basically shots a roll of film, then takes the undeveloped film and puts it in water or coffee and depending on the temperature of the drink it creates different effects on the negative.  I highly reccommend watching the whole interview, it's on the Art21 website:

http://video.pbs.org/video/1239627128

I have tried this technique over the summer.  On Wednesday I will be printing them so hopefully something great will happen!

Snapshot Aesthetic

Chelsea,
I love it! So funny. A completely different take on portraiture. Reminds me in some part  of Nicolas Nixon's pictures of his wife and her sisters.....he took a picture every year of them together and now he has 40!

Brett Bigsbee

Brett Bigsbee

A recent artist I've been introduced to is Brett Bigsbee, he is a modern painter who focuses in portraiture. I enjoy his work primarily because, in the present day Photography has become the dominate medium for portraits. I think it is a testament of the time, and illustrates how far Photo as an art has come- Being that painting is considered one of the most classical of art forms, as well as, the fact that the origination of the camera comes from the camera obscura (a tool originally used to assist painters work).

The pupil has surpassed the master, in a sense.

I find in Brett Bigsbee's work however the opportunity for the two mediums to continue to grow & learn from each other. His style is very engaging of the viewer, whether the subjects are looking directly at you or not. Bigsbee uses a soft focus so to speak, that adds to the elegance of each work. This in combination with his skill in using color palettes, allows certain aspects of an image to come right off the page.

Bigsbee is to have a new show open of recent work at the Alexandre Gallery in NYC:

October 20 through December 17, 2011

Reception for the artist, Saturday, October 22nd from 2 to 4pm.

Zoe Strauss and more!

Hey guys! I just wanted to let everyone know about the Zoe Strauss opening at the Philadelphia Museum of Art.  I interned at the PMA over the summer and she came and spoke to all of us, and then I went to her open studio day at the end of the summer.  She's really cool and was totally nice about talking to me about her photography career.  You can look at her blog at http://zoestrauss.blogspot.com/.  If you haven't seen her work, it's mainly street photography of strangers and text based photos.  But anyway it's on January 14th and is supposed to be unlike any other PMA opening... wild stuff.  


I have her book America if anyone wants to take a look at it... it's especially interesting for those of us from the South Jersey/Philly area, since she's a local Philly artist whose work revolves mainly around where she lives.


Also, for those of you not in History of Photography, the professor is hosting a symposium on early photography on Monday, November 7th at 2:00 in the teleconference room of Alexander Library.  The professor is really amazing and awesome, and there will be photo historians that will be speaking.  Should be interesting!

Collaboration

An excellent resource about Collaboration. This site is...
"a resource and platform for artists, theorists and art students setting out to offer a source of information, dissemination and discussion about collaborative art practice. The site hosts a number of commissioned essays and interviews including some important published and as yet unpublished essays on collaboration that have been generously contributed to the site by their writers. There are also a large number of links to relevant articles and artists’ websites. In addition the timeline for collaborative art practice sets out to place artistic collaboration in a historical perspective in relation to cultural and political events."

An essay worth reading on Collaboration would be:

"The Equisite Corpse is Alive and Well' by Anne Ellegood from the Hammer Museum in LA.

The Collaboration of Partners

Following is an interesting interview by the Australian collaborative photo documentists, Blakely/Lloyd. These were my professors when I was a student in Australia. They currently have a big show at the Museum of Brisbane. Check their work out...

                      

Another collaborative pair (also from Australia) are Joyce Hinterding and David Haines. Check out a youtube interview here.
