There were 94 photographers who submitted over 600 very creative images. Juror Karen Marks was impressed by the quality and variety of the entries. "The jurying process was not easy; too many wonderful images and very hard to choose. Being quite decisive I know what kinds of images move me, I do still lean in that direction, but I have been moved by some of these entries as some of these artists have shown me that even when I think I know what I like, I find something new." She ultimately selected 141 images from 61 photographers. Karen Marks is the Director at The Howard Greenberg Gallery in NYC. After graduating from School of Visual Arts in the early 1980's, she worked with Swann Galleries auction house in the photography department for many years. After leaving Swann, Karen worked for some of the most well respected photo galleries and dealers for over 25 years. Visit the Howard Greenberg Gallery at www.howardgreenberg.com. Soho Photo Gallery is the oldest artist-run photography gallery in New York City.

A month later, her first Diana arrived. In November 2008, she built her first matchbox pinhole camera. Since then, she’s come to believe the following to be true: 1. A person cannot own, make or modify too many cameras (Jody currently has 300+); 2. One should never venture out with fewer than three cameras on one's person; and 3. When it comes to cameras, the cheaper and lower-tech they are, the better. When she’s not collecting, making, or modifying cameras, Jody enjoys being an associate professor at University of Maryland, Baltimore County, where she teaches courses in technology studies, visual literacy and play theory. Nic Nichols is the founder and editor of FourCornerStore.com and owner and editor of ToyCamera.com, the largest independent Toy Camera portal. He has reviewed virtually every toy camera ever made.

Green Piece: Art & Nature in AmericaMarywood University
|
As part of the Green Piece art history elective course at Marywood University, students within the course were placed into groups to conceive of, document, and create an environmental art project to be installed on campus to help raise awareness for environmental issues through art. The Aquasonic Group, comprised of Sue Jenkins, Kathryn Bondi, Tony Pachick, and Kelly Ufkin, created Harmonia, a musical water reclamation sculpture. This environmental art project addresses the ongoing global need for a continued source of clean, potable water. Without it, our very existence is at stake. We all must take action now to help clean the air water we pollute by contributing to the production of clean water. Recycled water can be used for drinking, domestic use, gardening, irrigation and re-charging ground water. View a VIDEO of the SCULPTURE at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHWyDvp4pIwOur sculpture is composed of 144 clear glass tubes of varying heights erected directly into the ground roughly 30 feet long along both sides of the walkway between the Art and Science buildings, demonstrating a bridge between the two disciplines in the creation of environmental art. Within each tube are visible layers of natural filtration materials such as sand and charcoal to facilitate the purification of collected water before returning it to the surrounding soil. The water collected within each tube adds an auditory element to our sculpture, inviting both physical and intellectual interaction from viewers, as the tubes can be strummed with twigs (supplied to passers-by in nearby crates) to create a variation of tone. This, we hope, will aid in attracting attention to our greater cause. About Green Piece: With an eye on the environment, students will study the role of the artist in America--and assume that role--as it has changed from the time of the early explorer naturalists to contemporary earth artists. Co-taught by Professors Linda Partridge and Pamela Parsons, Marywood University's Green Piece course combines art history and studio art methods and is open to interested students of all fields. |

Graduate Seminar students, representing the areas of painting, clay, photography, and sculpture, collaborated to produce the provocative mixed media works comprising Revelations.
