Cheim & Read has two great photo exhibits happening concurrently - Diane Arbus ' In the Absence of Others and William Eggleston 's 21st Century . Arbus' black and white photographs feature "empty interiors and artificial landscapes spanning the 60s" while Eggleston's recent works focus on color and composition in interior and exterior scenes shot in Cuba, California, Paris, Memphis, New Jersey, and Queens. Diane Arbus (1923-1971), best know for her documentary portraits of people from the margins of society like carnival performers, nudists, transvestites, and the institutionalized, created intensely intimate images infused with an air of mystery and melancholy. Her amazing works of empty rooms, unpopulated hotel lobbies, and deserted Disneyland and Coney Island attractions evoke a similar, quiet, haunting aura.

Aesthetic Puzzles Assignments

Page updates: 12 August, 2005 Due dates: Puzzle 1: November 2/ rewrite due Wednesday, November 9 Puzzle 2: Monday, November 14 Puzzle 3: Monday, November 21 Edouard Manet was not present when the Emperor Maximilian was executed in Querétaro, Mexico in 1867. Manet based his historical painting Execution of Maximilian on eyewitness reports printed in European newspapers and portrait photographs of Maximilian and his generals. Although Manet's painting is not literally a "true" account of what took place, it has been said to reveal the "true" synthesis of the impersonal forces that resulted in Maximilian's death with the personal sympathy and admiration he elicited in France. Would the cognitive value of Manet's painting diminish if the newspaper reports that informed him were false? Can you appreciate Manet's painting if you do not know the story behind it? How much historical knowledge is needed to understand works of art?
