Ed Ruscha & John Baldessari
I saw one of these in my thesis class last semester. It had Ice Cube in it. He talked about "Gangsta Traffic". I figured it would be interesting to watch since we talked about both of these guys today.

And now for something completely real....from your friend and mine, Hennessey Youngman....
Behind Photographs

This is a link to an article i found online about a project by Tim Mantoani where he takes famous pictures and then makes a portrait with the photographer holding the picture.
It's actually quite well done and I love the idea of seeing who took pictures that we have all seen so many times.

The Loving Family
Twenty images are on display at the International Center of Photography in New York City from January 20 through May 6, 2012.
This is an exhibit about this couple, Mildred and Richard Loving, who in the 1960s helped to get rid of the law against interracial marriages in the U.S. The link I provided gives a little more detail about their story and some images of them and their family. I thought this was interesting and the images are quite lovely. I never really gave thought to there being a ban on interracial marriages, and the fact that it was still in effect only 50 years ago is just mind blowing!

Strobist Photography
OK...so for those that want to know more about on and off camera flash.....here are a set of tutorials by Matt Granger....that I think are really informative.
Check out his first one. He's unpretentious, informative and if you stick with it, you might learn something....like I did!
Happy viewing:
This is the first one, and there are plenty....as there is plenty to know and learn about using flash.
Also, my previous blog post is about lighting and the Cowboy Studio website I mentioned today where you can buy reasonably priced gear.

This is really important: SOPA & PIPA will break the internet, and our ability to share. It is dangerous, and destructive to the American Public.
As artists we need to be aware of this, as it will also hinder us. It is a huge censorship of media, and will affect us if passed. I do not support SOPA or PIPA, & I hope neither do you. If you feel the same as I do, please contact our representatives;
Sen. Frank Lautenberg [D, NJ]

Sen. Robert Menéndez [D, NJ]

If their phone mail boxes are full, go to their websites' contact. It will take 5mins of your time. These people are elected to represent us, they should know our opinions so they can properly do so.

Exhibition 'RAW'
There is an juried call for entries for an exhibition titled 'RAW'. Here is the information. This is a great opportunity to be in a museum show if your work is chosen. Its all about New Jersey. You are not limited to subject matter...and Wendel White is the Juror! The application and prospectus is on Sakai under the folder called 'RAW'.
The Noyes Museum of Art’s satellite gallery in Hammonton is looking for applicants for its newest juried competition, Raw. The theme is focused on New Jersey and the surrounding lands; photographs that capture the beauty and diversity of New Jersey’s (regional) lands, people, animals, water and nature are acceptable. There are $$$ prizes and a group show at the Noyes Museum of Art’s Hammonton Gallery for selected work. Juror for this competition is Wendel A. White, Professor of Photography at the Richard Stockton College of New Jersey. Deadline is February 22, 2012.
I am sending information about this competition in hopes to generate excitement amongst our regional photographers. One of our missions at the Noyes Museum Gallery in Hammonton is to facilitate emerging artists, so this would be an excellent opportunity for your students. It would be great if you could pass this along to anyone you feel would be interested. I have attached the prospectus and application as well.
Thank you, I look forward to seeing some of your student’s photography or your own.
