PDNPulse: Online Exhibition: "Portraiture Now: Feature Photography" - 0 views

  •  
    Online Exhibition: "Portraiture Now: Feature Photography" The National Portrait Gallery recently opened an exhibition that explores the work of six photographers-Katy Grannan, Jocelyn Lee, Ryan McGinley, Steve Pyke, Martin Schoeller, and Alec Soth-who, through their editorial assignment work, "each bring their distinctive 'take' on contemporary portraiture to a broad audience." "Their work," reads the curatorial statement, "builds upon a longstanding tradition of photographic portraiture for the popular press and highlights creative possibilities for twenty-first-century portrayal." For those who won't find themselves in Washinton, D.C. anytime soon, an online exhibition was created and can be found here; however, according to the site, there are additional portraits in the gallery that do not appear in the Web exhibition.

YouTube - Ovation TV | Sally Mann: What Remains - 0 views

  •  
    As one of the world's preeminent photographers, Sally Mann creates artwork that challenges viewers' values and moral attitudes. Described by Time magazine as "America's greatest photographer," she first came to international prominence in 1992 with Immediate Family, a series of complex and enigmatic pictures of her three children. In SALLY MANN: WHAT REMAINS, director Steve Cantor follows the creation of Mann's same-named series on the myriad aspects of death and decay. Never one to compromise, she reflects on her own personal feelings toward mortality as she continues to examine the boundaries of contemporary photography. At her family farm in Virginia, she is surrounded by her husband and now-grown children, and her willingness to reveal her artistic process allows the viewer to gain exclusive entrance to her world. Spanning five years, SALLY MANN: WHAT REMAINS contains unbridled access to the many stages of Mann's work, and is a rare glimpse of an eloquent and brilliant artist.

You may have heard of it from many different sources like the social media geeks in your life. Perhaps it was through corporate news like the recent Twittering Moms against Motrin incident or how the online shoe retailer Zappos uses this micro-blogging platform to transparently communicate with its customers. Regardless of what you've heard, it all started with a 14-year old Jack Dorsey (now CEO) who way back when wondered: what if you could create an instant messaging service to easily and quickly share your status with friends and vice versa?
