PEGGY LEVISON NOLAN – BLUEPRINT FOR A GOOD LIFE

Posted on 2021-05-31

Nolan found photography later in life, but she has been inseparable from her cameras ever since. She recalls, “When my youngest was about three, my dad gave me an old Nikon [camera] and said, ‘Make pictures of the grandchildren.’ And I got hooked. I got so hooked I can’t even describe it to you. One roll of film got me.” While Nolan’s more recent work encompasses color photography, for this earlier body of work from the 1980s and 1990s, she worked exclusively with black and white film.

Inspired by the domestic space, Nolan photographed her seven children and aspects of their life as a large, boisterous family. Nolan recounts that over time, her children eventually forgot she was documenting their every move, nap, and relationship. Nolan, steeped in the history of photography, draws on street photography with her candid and organic approach.

TOM UTTECH – ORIGIN

Posted on 2021-05-31

Birds all fly in the same direction while bears and bobcats gaze at us from their home in the woods. Tom Uttech is known for combining real and imagined elements inspired by nature in his captivating artwork. Tom Uttech: Origin will feature Kisibakwad, the beloved painting from the Figge collection, alongside a selection of large-scale photographs by the artist from the collection of the Museum of Wisconsin Art. The exhibition explores the origin of Uttech’s work —his relationship with the natural world and specifically with the North Woods, a place he has been fascinated with for decades and describes as “a land of glacial lakes, boreal plants and animals…”

THE FOREVER PURGE

Posted on 2021-05-24

Adela (Ana de la Reguera, Cowboys & Aliens) and her husband Juan (Tenoch Huerta, Days of Grace) live in Texas, where Juan is working as a ranch hand for the wealthy Tucker family. Juan impresses the Tucker patriarch, Caleb (Will Patton, Halloween), but that fuels the jealous anger of Caleb’s son, Dylan (Josh Lucas, Ford v Ferrari).

On the morning after The Purge, a masked gang of killers attacks the Tucker family—including Dylan’s wife (Cassidy Freeman, HBO’s The Righteous Gemstones), and his sister (Leven Rambin, The Hunger Games), forcing both families to band together and fight back as the country spirals into chaos and the United States begins to disintegrate around them.

JR – TEHACHAPI

Posted on 2021-05-24

JR is known for installing large-scale, public murals in collaboration with those portrayed, often with an emphasis on social justice. In October 2019, JR was given access to a maximum-security prison in California with the purpose of working with the incarcerated inhabitants on a collaborative art project. The artist worked with 48 currently or formerly incarcerated people, as well as correctional officers and individuals involved in the incarceration process. Together, they executed a large-scale wheat-paste portrait of the participants, stretched across the prison’s main complex and visible from above Tehachapi.

In 2020, the artist returned to the prison for a second iteration of the project – together with the inmates, he wheat pasted on the courtyard’s walls a photograph of the surrounding Tehachapi Mountains. Both projects remained intact for several days before the harsh elements of the Southern California desert caused the wheat-paste to disintegrate. What remains today is documentation of the projects and the stories of each participant.
