Hasted Hunt Gallery

I'm taking a Photo History Continuing Education class at Pratt Institute and just attended my first class on Saturday.  After the lecture, we hiked over to Hasted Hunt Gallery to see their current show, "Contradictions in Black & White."  The exhibit features work by Margaret Bourke-White, Harry Callahan, Michael Flomen, Adam Fuss, Nathan Harger, Vera Lutter, Ray K. Metzker, Irving Penn, and Horacio Salinas.  We were asked to connect the phrase "the camera never lies" to a specific image we saw at the show.  My response can be found on the class blog under comments.

Digital Photo Students at Bucknell University

I just finished a semester as the Graduate Assistant in Photography at Bucknell University in Lewisburg, PA.  Bucknell is not a trade school and students who major in art receive a BA, not a BFA in Art but that does not stop the department from producing many talented artists.  I've included a few images from the Fall 2009 undergraduate Digital Photo class above.
