Book Description
Over the last eight years Joseph Park has inserted a radical chapter to the timeless tradition of oil painting. Inspired by a J.G. Ballard story, and a tongue-in-cheek attitude toward the art's world's predilection for defined historical movements, Park developed an adjustable, custom-made easel, began studying fractals, crystal formation theory, and the permeating reality of pixels today, and from those elements formed Prizmism. Drawing inspiration from his painterly ancestors, as well as photography and sculpture, he has explored Prizmism through portraits, figures and a completed cycle shown at Elizabeth Leach Gallery in 2012 that is dazzling in its narrative, color, and surface. This is the first major monograph of Park's paintings, and focuses solely on this innovative endeavor.

Outcasts and Innocents

Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
Continually occupied by its indigenous peoples, as well as a siren to waves of pioneers, the Northwest has long fostered a sense of isolation and opportunity. Alice Wheeler's subjects embody both. Internationally known for her photographs of Nirvana, Bikini Kill, and the punk-feminist bands of Riot Grrl, Wheeler is drawn to people and landscapes that possess unique strength and beauty. Hers are the lesser-seen realities of Seattle's history over the last three decades: not the incessant rain and coffeehouse earnestness represented in films and sitcoms, but the glory of the drag scene; the devastation of AIDS; the freedom of choice celebrated at Hempfest and protest rallies; brilliant sunsets and radiant clouds; and a music scene that for decades has captivated devotees internationally. This is her first monograph.

The Unconcerned Photographer

ISBN: 9781732124165
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 54
Book Description
Charles Harbutt (1935-2015) was a master photographer and educator. His clear, pointed words from a 1970 lecture- published here in its entirety for the first time-will resonate with and challenge audiences considering the medium today: "Photography is not art. It is something totally new in human experience, something humans have not been able to do until the last century or so. Like flying. Or blowing up the whole world (I hope we survive our inventive little minds). The basic impulse of the photographer is diametrically opposed to the basic impulse of the artist, no matter what the artist's medium. The artist is trying to bring into existence something (even if only a concept) that never existed before. The photographer is trying to preserve, with the lens and especially the shutter, something in reality that will cease to exist in just that way in the next moment, or hour, or day.-Charles Harbutt

Book Description
This co-authored book of early self-portraits by two professional photographers celebrates love-first love, an enduring friendship that resulted, and a lifelong devotion to photography as a form of creative expression. The black and white photographs in the book are drawn from the summer of 1999-when Prince told us to party, computer scientists feared global shutdown, and the seismic changes in communication that arrived with widespread use of the internet had not yet occurred. Jenny Riffle and Molly Landreth, home from their first year at separate colleges, documented the precious and banal moments of early adulthood as they explored their surroundings, and each other, through photography. Presented along with selected correspondence from the remainder of their college years, the photographs are a testament to the power of enduring friendship, and the creative spirits of two unique yet complementary artists.

What Could Be
Author: David Hilliard
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780990603610
Category : Photography, Artistic
Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
Exploring lives lived and imagined, what we long for and what we obtain, the photographs in What Could Be follow a semi-autobiographical progression of the artist's explorations of family, societal norms, relationships, and moments of personal discovery in understanding concepts of masculinity.Hilliard's gentle diptychs and triptychs conjure a world that begins with our realities but moves beyond. He chooses to see, and to create, beauty in the narratives he imagines for himself, his friends, and striking strangers he encounters. Some of his subjects are frosted with perfect light and rich, dripping colors redolent of the peak of summer; others are subdued, bearing an uncertainty and fragility that so often accompanies the process of self-awareness.
