State of the Art Lecture: Dawoud Bey—Representing the Human Subject @ Frist: Dec 4 2008: Free

State of the Art Lecture: Dawoud Bey—Representing the Human Subject
Thursday, December 4, 6:30 p.m.
Auditorium, FREE





The State of the Art lecture series focuses on issues in the contemporary art world and feature presentations by nationally and internationally renowned authorities.

This lecture coincides with an exhibition on view at the Frist Center: The Best of Photography and Film from the George Eastman House Collection, which features more than 200 iconic photographs, films and film-related materials selected from the world-renowned collection of George Eastman House International Museum of Photography and Film in Rochester, New York.

Dawoud Bey began his career as a photographer in 1975 with a series of photographs, Harlem, USA, that were later exhibited in his first one-person exhibition at the Studio Museum in Harlem in 1979. He has since had numerous exhibitions worldwide, at such institutions as the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, National Portrait Gallery (London), and the Whitney Museum of American Art (New York), where his works were also included in the 2000 Whitney Biennial. The Walker Art Center (location) organized a mid-career survey of his work in 1995 that traveled to institutions throughout the United States and Europe. A major publication, “Dawoud Bey: Portraits, 1975-1995,” was published in conjunction with the exhibition.

Bey’s works are included in the permanent collections of numerous museums, including the Art Institute of Chicago, the Brooklyn Museum, the Detroit Institute of Arts, the High Museum of Art (Atlanta, Ga.), Museum of Contemporary Art (Chicago), National Portrait Gallery (London), Whitney Museum of American Art (New York) and many others. He has received numerous awards and fellowships over the course of his career including fellowships from the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation and the National Endowment for the Arts.

Bey has taught at colleges, universities, and other institutions for the past 30 years, and is currently professor of photography at Columbia College Chicago. He received his Master of Fine Arts degree from Yale University School of Art, and is presently represented in the United States by Rhona Hoffman Gallery, Chicago.

Photography Lecture Series @ Frist: Nov & Dec 2008: Free

Photography Lecture Series
Thursdays, November 6, 20 & December 11, 6:30 p.m.
Auditorium, FREE





The Frist Center is pleased to present a special three-part photography lecture series, featuring expert speakers who will each address a different aspect of the medium. The series is presented in conjunction with the current exhibition, The Best of Photography and Film From the George Eastman House Collection. The series is free to the public.

Thursday, November 20
Photography Lecture Series, Part II
“Is the Medium the Message?”

In 1964, Marshall McLuhan declared that the “medium is the message.” Susan H. Edwards, Ph.D., executive director and CEO of the Frist Center and photography scholar, examines his claims in the context of the history of photography. She discusses how images produced by photochemical processes immediately altered perceptions of time and space. Her talk confirms that the medium of photography changed the course of police work, medicine, journalism, the visual arts and material culture. In the digital age, even the social consequences of photography are changing. What is the message of this medium? How is the digital divide changing society?


Thursday, December 11
Photography Lecture Series, Part III
“Civil War Photography”

Guest speaker Brooks Johnson, consultant to the Chrysler Museum of Art (Norfolk, Va.), explores the work of photographers of the Civil War and iconic photographs on view in The Best of Photography and Film from the George Eastman House Collection. In addition, he explains the various photographic techniques used during this time period.

Tennessee Photographer John Guider Talk at State Museum: Nov 9

Tennessee Historical Society and the Tennessee State Museum
Third Annual Book Fair
at Tennessee State Museum

Sunday November 9, 2008
1:30-4pm

Several presenters will be participating in talks including...

John Guider
Tennessee photographer
The River Inside
3 PM


Tennessee photographer John Guider stepped into his 16-foot canoe on Spencer Creek in Williamson County five years ago and began his incredible journey. He canoed down the Harpeth, Cumberland, Tennessee, and Ohio rivers, before paddling the mighty Mississippi and arriving at his final destination of New Orleans. Guider completed the upper portions of the Mississippi in three subsequent solo canoe trips taken from 2005 to 2007.
In a journal chronicling his daily routine, Guider recorded the life he observed along the riverbanks and the details of what he felt were narrow escapes from life-threatening situations. The River Inside, is the title of both the State Museum exhibition and corresponding book that speaks to the resonance between life-sustaining water sources and human beings.
Guider's book is a compelling narrative of his life-changing journey, as well as a work of art, with high-impact photographs and graphics. With a cast of colorful characters, a series of near-deadly mishaps, a respect for the Mississippi as a wonder of nature and of commerce, and the wit and wisdom of a true poet, The River Inside is a one-of-a-kind tale.
At 3:00 p.m., Guider will present an account of his journey. Visitors to the book fair will be able to view Guider's exhibition, which includes 75 platinum prints from a selection of more than 10,000 images he took along the way, his canoe, river maps, and camera equipment. A short documentary film, distilling the essence of Guider's trips, produced by Brittany Hailes and Coke Sams of Nashville's Ruckus Film, complements the exhibition
