A Photographic Truth: Mark Osterman, George Eastman Museum
2017-03-28 19:00 - 21:00 | Redline, 2350 Arapahoe St., Denver, CO, 80205, United States
From the time the inventors of photography struggled to produce and preserve the earliest attempts at chemical imagery, photographers have used the medium to create their own truths. In the illustrated lecture, A Photographic Truth, Mark Osterman presents a humorous and informative look at how certain elements of photography are inherently untruthful and subject to manipulation. Osterman’s observations are based on primary research inspecting original artifacts from the George Eastman Museum collection, as well as his experiences recreating photographic processes that include the asphalt heliographs of Nicephore Niepce up to the earliest attempts of the Edison laboratory’s motion picture film.

About Mark Osterman
Mark Osterman, Photographic Process Historian for the George Eastman Museum in Rochester, New York, teaches public and private workshops in early photographic processes from Niepce heliographs to gelatin emulsions. After beginning his research into historic photographic processes while attending the Kansas City Art Institute in the 1970s, he went on to co-publish The Collodion Journal from 1995-2002, and write and edit portions of the New Focal Encyclopedia of Photography. For ten years Osterman taught process identification for the Advanced Residency Program in Photograph Conservation at Eastman Museum, and his writings have become important references for the international conservation community. While widely recognized as the foremost expert in the evolution of photography, Osterman is best known for his research in the collodion variants. Through his research, writings, exhibitions and teaching, he has been an important influence in the current revival of collodion technique in fine art photography.
Osterman’s work is included in numerous private and museum collections including Nihon University, in Tokyo, Japan; Maison Européenne de la Photographie, Paris, France; Museum of Fine Art, Houston; Musée de l’Elysée, in Lausanne, Switzerland; and the George Eastman Museum, in Rochester, New York. His images and writing are featured many publications, such as Photography’s Antiquarian Avant-Garde, The New Wave in Old Process Photography, by Lyle Rexer; Coming into Focus, by John Barnier, and The Book of Alternative Photographic Processes, by Christopher James. He is currently represented by Howard Greenberg Gallery in New York City, Photo Gallery International in Tokyo, Japan, and Tilt Gallery in Scottsdale, Arizona.

March 23: Gary Emrich

All talks start at 7:00 – 8:30 PM
Hamilton Building, Lower Level
Doors open at 6:30 p.m.
About Benjamin Rasmussen:
Benjamin Rasmussen grew up in a family of missionaries in the rural Philippines and questions of home, community, and identity were endemic to his childhood experience. These human connections have continued to drive his photographic practice.
In Down Hernani Shores, Rasmussen documents the destruction and rebuilding of the town of Hernani, Philippines, in the wake of Typhoon Haiyan. Combining portraiture and landscape work, along with drawings by the town’s children, he reveals the effects of the typhoon on the residents’ lives and livelihoods.
By the Olive Trees, a collaborative work with Michael Friberg self-published in newspaper format, presents the olive tree as a marker of permanence in a place defined by its tenuousness—the Zaatari Syrian refugee camp in Jordan.

As a companion piece to Hall’s recent 20 Works in 20 Minutes (performed in the Museum’s galleries in November of 2016), Notes from Clyfford Stillfeatures selections that interpret Clyfford Still’s works on paper and a new work for solo cello performed by Richard von Foerster.

Hero
2017-03-31 22:00 - 23:30 | Sie FilmCenter, 2510 East Colfax, Denver, CO, 80206
Starring Jet-Li and Donnie Yen!
Hero is two-time Academy Award nominee Zhang Yimou’s directorial attempt at exploring the concept of a Chinese hero. During the peak of their Warring States period, China was divided into seven kingdoms all fighting for supremacy. Most determined to dominate China was the kingdom of Qin, whose king (Chen Daoming) was wholly obsessed with becoming the first emperor of China. Though he was an assassination target for many, none of his would-be killers inspired as much fear as the legendary assassins Broken Sword (Tony Leung), Flying Snow (Maggie Cheung), and Sky (Donnie Yen). In hopes of thwarting his death, the king has promised endless wealth and power to anyone who defeats his would-be murderers. No results come until ten years later, when a man called Nameless (Jet Li) brings the weapons of the three assassins to the Qin king’s palace. Nameless claims to be an expert swordsman who had defeated Sky and destroyed the famed duo of Flying Snow and Broken Sword by using their love for one another against them. Once Nameless comes face to face with the king, however, it looks as if the situation is more complicated than he had thought. Also featured in Hero is Zhang Ziyi (The Road Home, Crouching Tiger, Hiden Dragon) as Broken Sword’s devoted servant, Moon.

Denver History Night: The Centenary of WWI
2017-04-03 18:00 - 19:30 | City Stacks, 1743 Wazee St. #100, Denver, CO, 80202 , United States
In early April 1917, the United States intervened in World War I. As the government mobilized soldiers, supplies, and funds, it also enacted a propaganda program aimed at encouraging pro-war sentiments—and at stifling dissent (through vigilantism, if necessary). The ensuing government-induced hysteria led to widespread repression and reaction.
Denver experienced its share of upheavals, and Phil Goodstein’s lecture will focus on how the city experienced the war and the disruptions that came in its wake.
