New Photography 2007

November 28th, 2007 · 1 Comment

For my individual visual arts outing, I went to the New Photography 2007: Tanyth Berkeley, Scott McFarland, Berni Searle exhibit at the MoMA. It’s a relatively small exhibition compared to others I’ve since so far, containing only about 3 pieces per photographer. Although there were only three artists, the exhibition covered a range of techniques […]

Foto– Modernity of Central Europe(Guggenheim Museum)

November 26th, 2007 · No Comments

FOTO:
Modernity in Central Europe, 1918-1945
Photographs can capture moments that want to be remembered forever. However, in this exhibition photography was utilized as an instrument of perception, illustrating the ultimate central European model of modernity.  As an immediate result of World War I, much of the mighty empires shattered into several apprehensive nation-states.   The crises of […]

My Love - Kara Walker

November 25th, 2007 · No Comments

It seems that Kara Walker got misunderstood.
