“For more than a decade beginning in the early 1980s, Mr. Sultan, who became a professor at the California College of the Arts in San Francisco, worked on a project about his mother and his father, who had been forced into early retirement. Using stills from home movies along with lush, colored-saturated pictures he took of his parents, the resulting book, “Pictures From Home,” was a deeply personal document but one that continued Mr. Sultan’s lifelong mission of exploring photography’s fictions.”
Title of the article: Photo/ Video exhibit on Israel at Museum of Contemporary Art Cleveland is First Rate.
That’ probably all you need to know to go see it if you haven’t already. Or, read the article and then go see it. The last day to view it is Jan 10, 2010.
Good bye “Quadrangle”…or was it “Quarter” … Hello “Campus District”.
I think this plan to revamp, revive and rebrand the district around CSU and Tri-C has potential. One thing the PD article doesn’t mention is the art gallery presence in the district, as well as directly to the east along Superior (that and Asia Town). It seems to concentrate on connecting CSU w/ Tri-C using E 22nd. A good thing.
One thing I’ve noticed in this area (and in the adjacent “QuARTer) is the culturally vital and unique businesses widely scattered in a sea of dilapidated buildings. Perhaps, a new fine arts building could anchor this corridor? It could serve as a great public / university interface, much as the Wexner Center does in Columbus. President Berkman? Do you read CSUPhoto?

Class may be over, but stay classy, people. Enjoy your break and the holidays. Keep those creative juices flowing. I look forward to seeing many of you in the spring. For the rest of you, stay in touch and keep a little piece of csuphoto in your heart. -M
So. It isn’t art or photography related, but I felt the need to pass this one on.
It seems that the west side lifestyle center / shopping destination, Crocker Park doesn’t recycle. Its almost 2010. Give me a break.
Read this article and don’t give them any money until they change their policy.
Better yet: “Call the main office of Crocker Park at 440-835-9343 and tell them you want to speak to the general manager Darryl Whitehead or email Whithead at dwhitehead@starkenterprises.com. Tell him to allow the many businesses, residents and visitors of Crocker Park to dispose of their waste in a more sustainable way. He might be able to avoid one concerned citizen, but he can’t avoid us all. In a world with so many difficult environmental problems, it’s kind of nice to find one that can be so easily remedied.”
