New York City began to adopt “urban renewal plans” in 1949
to get federal funding to acquire land, relocate the people living there,
demolish the structures and make way for new public and private development.
The legacy of these neighborhood master plans remains active across the city,
from sites like Lincoln Center to the many vacant lots cleared in East New York
and Bushwick for projects that were never completed. Even after federal funding
for the program was cut in 1974, New York City continued to adopt renewal plans
for neighborhoods - 82 plan areas, where the city has eminent domain power to
take private property for the public purpose of eliminating blight and economic
“under-performance,” came into being between 1975 and the present.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>

The book is about Adam Purple, who in 1975 set out to plant
a garden behind his tenement building at 184 Forsyth Street, at a time when the
Lower East Side was a crime-ridden wasteland. It was a massive undertaking. While clearing nearly 5,000 cubic
feet of debris using only simple tools and raw muscle power, Adam began to create his own
topsoil from materials he found at the site and around the city. By 1986, his world
famous eARThWORK had grown to 15,000 square feet. Adam 'zenvisioned' the Garden
expanding until it replaced the skyscrapers of New York. For Adam Purple--social
activist, philosopher, and urban</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
gardener/ revolutionary—the Garden was the medium of his
political and artistic expression. When the Garden was slated for demolition to
make way for a housing project, many prominent New Yorkers wrote letters and made
statements of support for Adam and the Garden. Nevertheless, The Garden of Eden was
razed on January 8, 1986, and the new housing project did not include an apartment for
Adam or space for a new garden. In terms of his revolutionary ideas about
sustainability and living as humble members of the natural world, Adam was ahead of his time. He
has not yet been properly recognized as an important environmental artist.</div>

Married young </span>(originally to Robert Frank and, since 1997, to musicologist Leo Treitler),<span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"> and pregnant at 17, she’s brutally honest about often having put her art before all else, about the early influence of dance upon her brushstrokes, and about being (in Cohen’s words) “hot in a cool world.” Her paintings, her political activism, and her past (the film includes wonderful footage of her with Allen Ginsberg and Jack Kerouac) tell the story of a deeply-felt, well-lived life.</span></span><br />

I am pleased that John included my very unique "canoe" tray in his book. <div>
<br /><div>
From the publisher:</div>
<div>
<div class="p1">
<b><i>Developer Trays</i></b> is master photography printer John Cyr’s tribute to the craft and art he has spent his career perfecting. As sure as the age of silver has come to an end, there remain few but extraordinary and dedicated darkroom practitioners such as Cyr who continue to work with chemistry and processes more or less unchanged since the early days of the medium.</div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
With an unrivaled passion for the darkroom and all its accouterments Cyr set out to document the actual developer trays of many of the world’s most renowned photographers. Cyr celebrates in stunning large-format color photographs the intimate materiality of the developer tray itself and the ephemeral presence of the artist within it. This revelatory work showcases the ubiquitous developer tray as an essential vehicle of analog photography that defies modern digital photographic advances: its material nature and functionality will not become obsolete.</div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
Trays from many of the giants of photography, including: Ansel Adams, Eddie Adams, Wynn Bullock, Bill Burke, Bruce Davidson, Elliott Erwitt, Emmet Gowin, David Graham, Sid Kaplan, O. Winston Link, Sally Mann, Eugene Richards, Stuart Rome, Mark Seliger, Neil Selkirk, Aaron Siskind, Jerry Uelsmann, Minor White, and Joel-Peter Witkin.</div>

I will be doing an artist lecture at the <a href="http://capworkshops.org/category/artist-lectures/" target="_blank">Center for Alternative Processes </a> discussing and sharing segments from my current film project, <i>From
Darkroom to Daylight</i>, about the transition in photography from chemical to
digital processes. For the
film, I’ve had conversations with over 40 photographers and others, including
Sally Mann, David Goldblatt, George Tice, Elliot Erwitt, Eugene Richards, Taryn Simon, Jerome Liebling, Susan Meiseles, Platon and Alex Webb. I’ve
visited the Ilford factory in England to talk to their chairman about film
production, and I’ve interviewed Steven Sasson, who invented the digital camera
while at Kodak, as well as Thomas Knoll who created Photoshop.</div>

The exhibition features original artwork, ephemera, and
performance documentation by artists who lived and worked on or near the Bowery
in New York. During these two decades, the Bowery was commonly identified with
the furthest extremes of metropolitan decline—municipal neglect, homelessness,
and substance abuse. As landlords and civil services abandoned the
neighborhood, the subsequent cheap rents and permissive atmosphere drew artists
downtown. The Bowery’s lofts provided a social network where painters, photographers,
performance artists, musicians, and filmmakers exchanged ideas and drew
inspiration from this concentration of creative activity.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
In those years, I was living in a loft
in Chinatown with five other artists.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I began documenting Adam Purple's remarkable Earthwork in 1977, and was
there in 1985 when the city began destroying it to build low income
housing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Adam started the garden
in 1975 on the crime-ridden Lower East Side.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>By 1986, <i>The Garden of Eden</i> was world famous and had grown
to 15,000 square feet, spanning five lots.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For Adam - a social activist, philosopher, artist and
revolutionary - <i>The Garden of Eden</i> was the medium of his political and artistic
expression.<o:p></o:p></div>

This exhibition also includes works by Barbara Ess, Coleen
Fitzgibbon, Keith Haring, John Holmstrom, Marc H. Miller, Adrian Piper, Adam
Purple, Dee Dee Ramone, Joey Ramone, Marcia Resnick, Christy Rupp, Arleen
Schloss, Eve Sonneman, Billy Sullivan, and Martin Wong.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It was curated by Ethan Swan.<o:p></o:p></div>

<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://alfredgescheidt.shutterfly.com/" target="_blank">Alfred Gescheidt</a> died this past Sunday, peacefully in his apartment on Lexington Ave. I had the honor of interviewing Alfred last year for my documentary film about transition in photography from a chemical process to a digital one. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfred_Gescheidt" target="_blank">Alfred</a> began his career as documentary photographer in New York in the late 1940s. He was most known as a photo satirist and photographic montage artist, creating images that were <a href="http://www.higherpictures.com/artists/Alfred_Gescheidt/" target="_blank">outrageous, experimental, funny and erotic</a>. His work seemed photoshopped, long before Photoshop was invented. <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />His <a href="http://www.higherpictures.com/artists/Alfred_Gescheidt/">erotic photomontages</a> were exhibited at Higher Pictures in 2009.Harvey Wanghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10369785316952681158noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1336321350043457517.post-76484768968832356712012-01-17T22:30:00.000-05:002012-05-13T23:18:00.974-04:00<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<i>Flophouse: Life on the Bowery</i> (Random House, 2000) is featured in a recent post on Joe Bonomo's blog <a href="http://www.nosuchthingaswas.com/2012/01/death-and-life-on-bowery-conversation.html"><i>No Such Thing as Was</i></a>. Joe is an author, essayist, cultural historian and professor in the Department of English at Northern Illinois University.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"While reading East of Bowery I was put in mind of <i>Flophouse: Life on the Bowery</i>, published in 2000, a terrific collection of Harvey Wang's photos of soon-to-be-gone Bowery transient hotels, David Isay's and Stacy Abramson's historical commentary, and edited monologues of folks barely if stubbornly hanging on in those residences. After Joseph Mitchell's <i>New Yorker</i> essays and James Agee's and Walker Evans's <i>Let Us Now Praise Famous Men</i>—and predating the boomlet of blogs such as <i><a href="http://vanishingnewyork.blogspot.com/">Jeremiah's Vanishing New York</a></i>, EV Grieve, It's All The Streets You Crossed Not So Long Ago, and many others—<i>Flophouse</i> documents the city in vivid and precise nonfiction, telling true stories as those stories leaned and dissolved in dire times. I've long been fascinated by the Bowery and its place in popular culture, careful to leaven what could become dangerous and irresponsible nostalgic romance with the painful reality of the street's history and its untold broken denizens."</span>Harvey Wanghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10369785316952681158noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1336321350043457517.post-66834643531825421222012-01-03T13:07:00.000-05:002012-05-13T23:20:37.037-04:00Photo Essay in UK's Life Force Photography Magazine<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

An early photo essay of mine about Madison County, North Carolina has been published in <i><a href="http://www.lifeforcemagazine.com/index.htm" target="_blank">Life Force</a></i> the acclaimed magazine of the photo-essay. The magazine's goal is to "show the work of the best photographers in the world." <i>Life Force Magazine</i> is designed to tell stories in pictures and to explore the unique power of the photo-essay. The only writing in the magazine is by the photographers themselves and is there to add context, color and understanding. The BBC's <i>Culture Show</i> have described <i>Life Force Magazine</i> as the <i>Picture Post</i> of the 21st Century'Harvey Wanghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10369785316952681158noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1336321350043457517.post-5664449057397017742011-12-19T00:22:00.001-05:002011-12-19T00:26:44.441-05:00Make + Model<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This will be the first exhibition in the Tenement Museum's new building at 103 Orchard Street.<br />
<br />
The museum's press release writes that the exhibition "explores the ongoing evolution of the Lower East Side through 22 black-and-white photographs. Taken between 1979 and 1993, Wang’s images tell the fascinating and often-forgotten stories of immigrant and working class New Yorkers. The traditions, homes and everyday lives of Wang’s subjects are captured with tenderness and clarity, revealing powerful glimpses of the neighborhood’s complex history." Annie Polland, Vice President of Education at the Museum said, “Harvey Wang’s photographs are beautiful and historically important. They echo the mission of the Tenement Museum and extend the stories we tell into the late 20th century.<br />

Royal/T’s Pacific Standard Time installation features Ann Magnuson and Kenny Scharf’s East Village West exhibit. Scharf and Magnuson met in NYC and became key figures in the East Village art scene in the eighties. The show honors an era of art that was directly inspired by Hollywood dream factories during the Atomic Age. Featured in the installation are over 20 photographs by Harvey Wang, as well as ongoing slide show of his documentation of Club 57 and the East Village in the 1980s.<br />
<br />
In additon to work by Scharf the exhibit include work by other East Village luminaries such as Keith Haring, John Sex and Jean Michel Basquiat. Located in Culver City, Royal/T, LA’s first Japanese- style cosplay café, gift shop and art space, is a little piece of Japan dropped right into LA. The Harajuku waitress maids surrounded by Murakami and Hello Kitty make this unique gallery café a playful experience not to be missed. Gallery owner, Susan Hancock’s intention is to make everyone feel like, “Alice in Wonderland, gone down the rabbit hole.”<br />
