Photo Fly Away, © Amy Holmes George, juror
A portrait! What could be more simple and more complex, more obvious and more profound. 


The above quotation comes not from a photographer, but from 19th century French poet (and art critic) Charles Baudelaire. It's still an accurate observation, maybe even more incisive  with the many changes in image-making that have taken place since 1859.  In the age of the selfie and ubiquitous photos of people both famous and unknown it's sometimes hard to imagine a new way of presenting a human likeness, and yet photographers are doing it.  It's said that the portrait differs from the candid (or street) photo in that the subject of the portrait knows that she or he is being photographed. With only that as a caveat there's a broad range of interpretations possible.


So, for this exhibition you're free to interpret the portrait in any way you choose. It can be a self portrait, a formal portrait, a from-the-hip shot of someone whose attention you've caught, or even a random body part. Manipulation of the image is permitted as long as the primary subject is from a photographic source in any medium.  Thinking, or seeing, outside the box is very much encouraged, although skilled classic portraits ala Avedon or Karsh would be quite welcome. Simple or complex, obvious or profound; all are appropriate.

How does a city tell its stories? Using Savannah as a case study, this course

how Savannah’s past is typically presented in civic spaces, and consider
whos histories have been neglected or misrepresented. Topics of study
include public art, a chronology of historical Savannah, discussions of race,
class, and gender, urban planning, and the cultural identity of the
Lowcountry region. Students’ research, writing and documentation of local
sites will be applicable to website and mobile site encounters. Class
meetings feature guest presentations by specialists in local history and
include several excursions to experience Savannah’s rich fabric of people
and places.
