William Mortensen at Buckland Museum
October 11, 2019
William Mortensen’s manipulated photographs are on exhibit at the Buckland Museum in Cleveland. The exhibition, titled “Witches” is just in time for Halloween. Mortensen began his career as a glamor and film still photographer in the 1920s. He soon turned to darker themes influenced by horror films. But it was his pictorialist compositing techniques that caused the photography-purist Ansel Adams to call him the Anti-christ.
The exhibition and venue are featured on WCPN Ideastream. The Buckland Museum of Witchcraft and Magick was founded in New York in 1966 and relocated to Cleveland in 2015. More about William Mortensen here. More details about the exhibition here.

Cleveland Magazine is looking for motivated and creative photography interns to join our staff for the fall semester.
Photography interns work with art directors to gain experience in product, portrait and food photography. Interns are an integral part of the Cleveland Magazine team, photographing well-established and up-and-coming business owners, chefs, restaurants, shops and products in Cleveland for work published in an award-winning city magazine. Cleveland Magazine crosses several formats, with print, video and digital platforms, and our interns have the opportunity to create content for each of them. Photography interns gain meaningful local connections and meet professional photographers.
Interns will be supervised in duties such as photo research, retouching, color correcting images, resizing images for the web and other supervised photo assignments with Cleveland Magazine. This is a unique internship that blends real professional experience with ongoing, transferrable educational training.
We are looking for energetic and detail-oriented college students working toward a degree in photography to assist our design team. Candidates should have proficient knowledge of digital photography, photo retouching, Adobe Photoshop and own a professional camera. InDesign and Multimedia knowledge a plus. Doing the internship for academic credit is preferred, but not required.
Cleveland Magazine hires 2-3 photography interns three times a year: for fall and winter/spring semesters and for summer. We accept applications for all semesters year-round, and are currently seeking applications for fall.

Edward Burtynsky: Water at CMA
August 23, 2019
On view through September 22, 2019
Cleveland Museum of Art
Mark Schwartz and Bettina Katz Photography Gallery
As part of Cuyahoga50, a citywide commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the last Cuyahoga River fire and celebration of the progress made since toward clean water for all, the Cleveland Museum of Art will present two exhibitions that highlight the impact of human behavior on the environment. Featuring the work of renowned contemporary artist Edward Burtynsky (Canadian, b. 1955), Water: Edward Burtynsky draws attention to current threats to clean, sustainable water and encourages visitors to reflect on individual actions that can impact the future of our planet.
Burtynsky’s global portrait explores humanity’s increasingly stressed relationship with water, the world’s most vital natural resource. Thirteen monumental color photographs survey locales from the Gulf of Mexico to the shore of the Ganges. Offering both aesthetic abstraction and concrete data, these hauntingly beautiful images encourage us to ponder whether current water-management strategies are among humankind’s great achievements or its most dangerous failures.

CSUphoto Student’s Show Getting Buzz
March 25, 2019
CSU photo student, Nico Pico Train has a new photography exhibition at Art on Madison in Lakewood. Her show, “Uncensored: Liquid Sex Series” has been getting some buzz in local media, including write ups in Cleveland Scene and Collective Art Network (CAN) Journal. The exhibit is, well uncensored.
According to the articles, the work “ingeniously poses more questions than answers about sex, ” and that “formally, the photographs are stunning.” The work “forces us to grapple with the realness of sexuality, as well as its humorous side. This is not cheap boudoir photography. [the work] manages to balance her take on erotic art in a yin-yang way.”
