Carlin Wing

Pigmented ink print surface mounted to acrylic and back mounted to Dibond. 70 x 57 inches.

Carlin Wing is giving a lecture today (April 21st) from 4-5 in room 405.

"Her work is grounded in and usually comes bouncing back to her training in photography and related media. Her talk will address context inside and outside of her work and her growing belief in strategies of ricochet and juxtaposition."

Thank god.

[I deleted the photo. Just go outside and enjoy the air. You'll see it.]

I thought I was having a bad day until I saw this.

La Passion de Jeanne d'Arc

As part of the upcoming Nashville Film Festival they will be showing La Passion de Jeanne d'Arc with a live organ at Christ Church Cathedral downtown on April 21st at 8pm. I'm excited and you should be too.

"You cannot call yourself a cineaste without having seen Carl Theodore Dreyer's 1928 masterpiece The Passion of Joan of Arc. Created at the height of German Expressionism and French Avant-garde, The Passion of Joan of Arc is an extraordinary experience. Each shot, of the more than 1,500, is seemingly disconnected from the previous, and though the set was built in one piece, you'd never know because there isn't a single establishing shot in the entire film. Instead, Dreyer uses medium shots and close-ups only. Audiences used to emotion being communicated through dialogue will be awed to see what a face can communicate. Maria Falconetti gives what the great Pauline Kael called,'the finest performance ever recorded on film,' and her eyes will burn into you. This special film will be presented at the Christ Church Cathedral in downtown Nashville with a live pipe organ score performed by UNC Chapel Hill organist Joseph Roenbeck."

New Movies About Art

Helen Levitt

"Helen Levitt, a major photographer of the 20th century who caught fleeting moments of surpassing lyricism, mystery and quiet drama on the streets of her native New York, died in her sleep at her home in Manhattan on Sunday. She was 95." NY Times article

It's so strange when artists you love die. And while you don't know them or have never even met them, you feel like one of your best friends has died.
