A New Reality

Black-and-White Photography in Contemporary Art

December 10 - February 23, 2008
(Closed December 23-January 1)

This exhibition of approximately 90 photographs explores two themes: the continued use of black-and-white photography as a medium of visual and historical consequence, and the growing tendency of photographers to create imaginative narratives for their imagery, sometimes arranging figures and objects in environments or constructing tableaux for emotive effect.

The photographers selected include some whose work has emerged within the last decade. The exhibition focuses on works by American artists but also includes important international photographers. Among those represented in the exhibition are: Robert Adams, Vic Muniz, Cindy Sherman, Sherry Levine, Duane Michals, James Casabere, and Hiroshi Sugimoto.

The Stedman Gallery is open Mondays through Saturdays, 10am - 4pm.

Admission is free.

Changing Identity

Recent Works by Women Artists from Vietnam

September 4 - November 21, 2007

Since Vietnam opened its doors to the West, a booming art business has brought economic prosperity to many artists - predominantly men. Vietnamese women, long stereotyped as living in the shadows of their husbands, have been virtually overlooked by the international art world. Now, a younger generation of women find themselves in position to critique prevailing norms and to question the status quo. Changing Identity is the first survey of its kind to tour the United States, featuring the work of ten Vietnamese women breaking barriers and presenting a fresh, unique perspective on Vietnamese culture.

The Stedman Gallery is open Mondays through Saturdays, 10am - 4pm.

Admission is free.
