Museum of Contemporary Photography

by karlcow

After observing particular subcultures and ethnic groups, Nikki S. Lee adopts their general style and attitude through dress, gesture, and posture, and then approaches the group in her new guise. She introduces herself as an artist (though not everyone believes her or takes it seriously), and then spends several weeks participating in the group’s routine activities and social events while a friend or member of the group photographs her with an ordinary automatic “snapshot” camera. Lee maintains control of the final image, however, insofar as she chooses when to ask for a picture and edits what photographs will eventually be displayed.

Communist Germany's Fashion Scene

exhibition "InGrezen Frei" : http://www.berlin.de/orte/museum/kunstgewerbemuseum/index.fr.php Dans la RDA des année 80 le vêtement était un produit standardisé et fonctionnel laissant peu de place pour un style personnel qui permettait de se démarquer. L’exposition"InGrezen Frei" (libre dans certaine limite) au musée des "arts décoratifs" de Berlin montre qu’un mouvement à ermergé entre 1979 et 1989...un mouvement qui montrait que cette jeunesse résistait à l’Etat par le refus d’une mode collective en portant des vêtements de création unique. Ces collectifs clandestins fabriquaient leurs propres vêtements et organisaient des défilés de mode.

Brooklyn Museum: Community: bloggers@brooklynmuseum » BklynMuse: Going Mobile with a Gallery Guide Powered by People

by karlcow

Ever wish you could remix the gallery experience? When I walk into a museum I enjoy the structure—the information given, which objects have been placed where, the specific sequence in which the space has been designed—but I will admit, there are times when I want something else too….something that’s a bit off the charts and possibly something that is always subject to change. I’m positive this other need has something to do with all those Choose Your Own Adventure books I was hooked on as a kid.
