Intimacies
Curated by John Neff and Lorelei Stewart
September 9-October 22, 2011
Reception: Friday, September 9, 5-8 pm
Elijah Burgher/Tom Daws | LaToya Ruby Frazier | Desirée Holman | Leigh Ledare | Laurel Nakadate | Michael Sirianni
In the six artists' works in Intimacies the camera is an active agent in the creation of social events, not just a recording instrument in the hands of an autonomous documentarian. The primarily photographic and video works, some of which include painting and sculptural elements, focus on charged interpersonal encounters. Beyond serving as indices of such encounters, the included artworks reveal the reconfigured effects of such exchanges, disclosing the complexity of authorship, agency, and viewership in today's world.

15x15 Anniversary Acquisition Exhibition, Spelman College.
THE 15 x 15 WISH LIST
The artists selected for acquisition are referred to as The Fifteen. The Museum is calling upon the generosity of Friends of the Museum—both old and new—to acquire works by 15 artists. The artists were selected based on their inclusion in previous exhibitions at the Museum as well as responses their work garnered from students, the campus community, visitors and critical exhibition reviews. This acquisitions initiative is the genesis of growing a permanent collection focused on the Museum's mission to emphasize works by and about women of the African Diaspora. The Fifteen are Sheila Pree Bright, María Magdalena Campos-Pons, Renée Cox, Lalla Essaydi, LaToya Ruby Frazier, Myra Greene, IngridMwangiRobertHutter, Lauren Kelley, Marcia Kure, Bradley McCallum & Jacqueline Tarry, Nandipha Mntambo, Lorraine O'Grady, Howardena Pindell, Lorna Simpson and Carrie Mae Weems.

47th Society for Photographic Education National Conference "Facing Diversity: Leveling the Playing Field in the Photographic Arts," -- Panel: "Framing the Family Photograph" with Clarissa Sligh, Gay Block, Clare Cornell, LaToya Ruby Frazier, Vicki Kluthe and Sylvia Sukop.
We choose to create photographs from the material of our family life, but refuse to keep secret what society often finds uncomfortable to look at. Our family photographs are not nostalgic remembrances of the past but tools for comprehension and conceptual starting points. They explore conflict, rejection, dying, divorce and aging and articulate experiences often missing from the family album. Within our photography-saturated culture, we seek to create a context that resonates between the actual and the symbolic, that conveys the complex experience of intimate relationships, loss, and memory, and that assists the viewer in entering the space.
