The late and great Sarah Charlesworth has been mentioned in this blog recently. Regrettably I just realized she passed away suddenly on June 25th.  The New York Times has a nice piece remembering her here that is well worth the read.

She is especially worth noting again regarding her major retrospective at the New Museum in New York. Not to be missed and a glorious final tribute to a remarkable photographic artist.

Contemporary Photographers, Traditional Practices: Vision and Method in the 21st Century

October 2nd to November 22, 2014
Eleanor D. Wilson Museum at Hollins University

The Eleanor D. Wilson Museum at Hollins University enters its second decade this year with a fall exhibition celebrating photography. In collaboration with the Schmidt-Dean Gallery in Philadelphia, the museum presents an eclectic exhibition of thirteen contemporary photographers represented by the gallery, all of whom enjoy regional and national reputations. Curated by Schmidt-Dean Gallery director Christopher Schmidt, the exhibition features a wide range of both technical and conceptual approaches. Included are historical procedures such as the tintype, cyanotype and gum-bichromate process; alternative techniques such as pinhole and hand painting; and more traditional methods in both analog and digital. Throughout, these various approaches are applied to a wide range of subjects and ideas.
