Seeing through barriers
Inside or outside? A question that is spatial, cultural, intellectual, and emotional. Finished up my stint with some intriguing social observers and formalists.
- Jane Paradise - a photographer I curated on the PRC web site (Not Quite Strangers on NEO, October 2010) - wanted to get my help in reconsidering that edit of her work, whether she could refocus those images on human experiences of museum spaces
- Frederic Weber - sick, couldn't make it to Houston, but sent his wife with his startling, and startlingly simple, color prints that concentrate on children's art and visions link
- Sylwia Kowalczyk - a Pole living in Edinborough - portraits that address ethnicity in its fine details - in doing the portraits Sylwia creates a firmer footing for herself in this very different place link
- Lori Pond - Lori showed the only phone camera photos I saw, which was something of a surprise - when I asked if she used Instagram, she made it clear, from a list of apps and software I've never heard of, that her goal is prints, not dissemination via the Internet as so many of us are - and the prints were quite fascinating, part of an attractive portfolio that addressed a variety of landscape issues link
- Don Glentzer - one of the most challenging portfolios I reviewed, because its insistence on the flattest of materials, like ink on glass, made the optics of his project Point of Chance as thin as a membrane link
