Behind the Velvet Rope

As a White House press corps photographer Chris Usher has, for many years, enjoyed unparalleled access to the back rooms and corridors of power in Washington. On the campaign trail, at moments of great national importance and in the day-to-day business of the White House, Usher is also able to give us an exclusive look at the wizards behind the curtain of Oz-at work, at rest, and at play. Along the way we learn a little more about the men and women who create, manipulate, and disseminate the Presidential Persona.

Continues through Jan.18, 2009

 

Jill Greenberg: Photographs

Jill Greenberg's unique stylings and interpretations of wild animals and children in stunning large scale color.

Highly conceptual, elaborately designed, and uniquely executed, Greenberg’s professional work has spawned many emulators. Since the early 1990’s she has been known as “The Manipulator” because of the heavily stylized, hyper-real imagery that is now her trademark. Her subjects’ shimmering, saturated, supernaturally perfect skin has a luminosity and intensity than can often feel too close for comfort. Presented with the assistance of ClampArt, New York.

Continues through Jan.18, 2009

 

Pedro Meyer: Heresies

Mexican photographer Pedro Meyer is widely recognized for both his provocative and powerful images and for his pioneering work in digital imaging. Meyer’s vivid, magic-realist style photographs have consistently questioned the boundaries of truth, fiction and reality. Heresies is a retrospective exhibition featuring five decades of images by one of the most innovative photographic artists in the world.

Heresies challenges and redefines the traditional form of photographic exhibitions by mixing large format prints with new technological elements, including digital galleries and installations that integrate audio, text and images.

Nov. 1, 2 p.m.

 

Film Screening: Election Day

Directed by Katy Chevigny (USA, 2007). Forget the pie charts, color-coded maps and hyperventilating pundits. What’s the street-level experience of voters in today’s America? In a triumph of documentary storytelling, Election Day combines eleven stories-all shot simultaneously on November 2, 2004, from South Dakota to Florida, take the process of democracy into their own hands. The result: an entertaining, inspiring and sometimes unsettling tapestry of citizens determined on one fateful day to make their votes count. As these stories intertwine, audiences take in a portrait of American elections that is expansive, revealing, and intimate. Free.

Three Sisters

Olga, Masha, and Irina are the Three Sisters in Anton Chekhov’s play that opened at the Moscow Art Theater on January 31st, 1901. In 1923 the Moscow Art production of Three Sisters came to New York. This New York production helped spark the shift in American acting into “a more realistic” ‘truer’ acting style…” said Jean Claude van Itallie, an English translator of Chekhov’s plays. Van Itallie concedes that the Sisters are all complex good people with Olga, the eldest, stoically shouldering the parental responsibilities in their absence. Masha, the middle sister, is romantic, clever, cultured, and unhappily married to a hapless school teacher. Irina, the youngest, embodies radiant hope dreaming of a full and happy life. Even though each of the sisters is struggling with a touch of emptiness in their individual lots, they are not morbid or bitter; rather they remain full of feeling and full of love for each other. The Village Voice said that, “the Three Sisters captures Chekhov’s exuberance, music and complexity.” Free admission for Daytona State College and Volusia County students, $5 for all others.
