kusturica.

Emir Kusturica's beautiful and tragic epic, "Underground" (Podzemlje). If you have never seen this film, I highly recommend it.

Hi all, Maryann here. I just wanted to say that I just did my third Invitation performance (in the Fairhaven building, first floor) and therefore have only 2 left. The last two will be happening the next two upcoming Fridays. I am writing because I was curious of if anybody had any good ideas about where I should hold my last two performances. I was going to do them outside, but I think that I will frankly be too cold. So if anybody thinks they know a place with a good deal of traffic that would welcome someone who wants to sit around, let me know! It can be on or off of campus...

Also, an article will be coming out on me this coming week in the Western Front. Check it out!

Lastly, here's the trailer for the latest Harmony Korine movie:

It looks weirder than all his other movies too. That is a fucking feat.

Happy halloween! Everyone should post pictures of themselves in their costumes too!

Love,
Maryann

Hey y'all, here is my artist article: an interview with Stephen Shore. One of the pioneering photographers of the color movement, Shore started his career early, taking photos at Andy Warhol's Factory in the 1960s at the age of 17.

495 Parks Hall update

Hey 495 gang...

We were having some issues communicating with Dan Purdy via our Yahoo! account, so to save headaches I started up a new Gmail account for project-related purposes. And it is:

profpractices495@gmail.com

Andrew and I presented the sample to him yesterday and he absolutely loved it. The budget is officially official and he is beginning to gather his models and set up shoots. Photographers, we'll be in touch!

That's all.

Simple yet amazing idea.

Some really cool oil paintings done by Brendan Lott. Similar in style to Tim Gardner who Sarah did her presentation on.

Coop, i was wondering if you could weigh in with some of your influences?

Also...

Jamie Livingston took a photograph every day for 18 years with his Polaroid SX-70. Check out the online catalog of his daily documentations, compiled by the photographer's friends after his death, and read this blog article that explains the project a bit more in-depth. Although not all of Livingston's images are self-portraits, this could inform your work as you continue with your one-a-day self portraits. How can you examine the same subject (yourself, your environment, your friends) over and over again in different ways?

Some of Livingston's self-portraits for your consideration...

"04-28-79"

"01-09-83"

"01-23-93"

this dude might be cooler than the rancor master....

well, maybe not the rancor master, but definately cooler than the worst music video of all times, (see post below). That awful music drew the attention of my roomates, who quickly dubbed me 'german numetal roomate' and flogged me repeatedly. great.

Zdzisław Beksiński

yeah. rancor master in schyo face.

andrew, for you

Sebastião Salgado (b.1944)

"A committed photojournalist, Salgado is one of the most outstanding and versatile of contemporary photographers. A humanist who conveys his feelings with powerful, beautiful photographs, he has revealed a world of human despair from the miserable conditions endured by Brazilian coal miners to African famine victims to oil well firefighters in Kuwaiti oil fields.

A trained economist with advanced degrees in the field, he first became interested in photography while touring Africa as an economic advisor in 1970. In 1973 he quit 

his job to travel to Africa with his wife to document famine there. In 1974 he joined the Sygma agency, and then the Gamma agency (1975 1979). In 1979 he was invited to join Magnum. Two years later he was in the doorway of the Washington Hilton taking pictures when President Ronald Reagan was shot by John Hinckley."

(text from The Photography Encyclopedia)

And while I'm at it, here are a couple related images I've come across from Hally Pancer's "America 1986-1990" series...good stuff.
