Light Work’s Guggenheim Fellows
Light Work would like to wish a hearty congratulations to our Light Work family members Susan Lipper, Arno Rafael Minkkinen & Stuart Rome on being named 2015 Guggenheim Fellows. The John Simon Guggenheim Foundation’s annual Guggenheim Fellowships are awarded to men and women who have demonstrated exceptional capacity for productive scholarship or exceptional creative ability in the arts. Lipper was Light Work’s September 2004 Artist-in-Residence. Minkkinen was one of Light Work’s first exhibiting artists in 1973, and a contributor to our 2009 Platinum Editions Program. Rome was among Light Work’s first Artists-in-Residence in 1978 and a participant in Light Work: Photography over the 70s and 80s, Light Work’s 1985 retrospective, touring exhibition which opened at the Everson Museum of Art in Syracuse, NY.

We are humbled and honored to have helped facilitate time, space, and resources for so many of these artists early in–and throughout–their careers. We are proud to be part of this history.

Featuring himself as the main actor on the vast stage of nature, Minkkinen’s photographs bend, twist, and immerse the body back into its primal settings. His masterful use of line, texture, and composition create isolated moments that reestablish a harmonious relationship between mankind and the ground, water, and flora that feed and nurture its corporality and spirit. In images such as Paper, Scissor, Rock, Minkkinen and the exact locations of the exposures remain anonymous, making possible a global expression of humanity’s eternal place in the organic order.
This edition was produced by renowned platinum printer Sal Lopes on 100% rag paper.

In his series By Rail, artist Scott Conarroe evokes a sense of adventure and beauty inspired by the sight of train tracks. In this project, started in 2005, Conarroe drove to points all over North America to photograph what remains of a system that once connected cities, people, and their lives. Made mostly at dawn, the images in By Rail offer a graceful nostalgia for a mythical pioneer past that long ago gave way to the lure of the automobile.
Conarroe’s photographs have been shown widely, including exhibitions at Art Gallery of Windsor in Windsor, Ontario; Stephen Bulger Gallery in Toronto, Ontario; and The Museum of Contemporary Canadian Art in Toronto, Ontario. Conarroe was a Light Work Artist-in-Residence in 2008.

LaToya Ruby Frazier
The Notion of Family
Interview by Dawoud Bey
Essays by Laura Wexler and Dennis C. Dickerson
Aperture, 2014
Hardcover, 156 pages with 100 duotone images and 32 four-color video stills
ISBN: 978-1-59711-248-2
First Edition, Signed by the artist
SOLD OUT
In this, her first book, LaToya Ruby Frazier offers an incisive exploration of the legacy of racism and economic decline in America’s small towns, as embodied by her hometown of Braddock, Pennsylvania. The work also considers the impact of that decline on the community and on her family, creating a statement both personal and truly political-an intervention in the histories and narratives of the region. Frazier has compellingly set her story of three generations-her Grandma Ruby, her mother, and herself-against larger questions of civic belonging and responsibility. The work documents her own struggles and interactions with family and the expectations of community, and includes the documentation of the demise of Braddock’s only hospital, reinforcing the idea that the history of a place is frequently written on the body as well as the landscape. With The Notion of Family, Frazier knowingly acknowledges and expands upon the traditions of classic black-and-white documentary photography, enlisting the participation of her family-and her mother in particular. As Frazier says, her mother is “coauthor, artist, photographer, and subject. Our relationship primarily exists through a process of making images together. I see beauty in all her imperfections and abuse.” In the creation of these collaborative works, Frazier reinforces the idea of art and image-making as a transformative act, a means of resetting traditional power dynamics and narratives, both those of her family and those of the community at large.

Self portrait with Saguaro about my same age, Pinacate Sonora 10/29/99, 1999
Platinum print, 8 x 10″ on 10 x 12″ paper
Shipped in a 14 x 18″ mat

$450
“The photo was made in Mexico at Pinacate, their first nature reserve. The time was dawn, and my shadow was raking across the top of the cider cone I had climbed. I noticed that I could project it onto a small saguaro cactus, and did so for the picture. Saguaros are the symbol of the Sonoran Desert in this part of Mexico and my home state of Arizona just a few dozen miles to the north. Saguaros may grow to be 30 or 40 feet tall and live over two hundred years. This cactus was relatively young, about my same age though much younger in saguaro years than I was in human years. It was a reflection of differing perceptions of time, of life and the land.” – Mark Klett

Deana Lawson

Archival inkjet print, 7.5 x 10″ on 11 x 14″ paper
Shipped in a 14 x 18″ mat
Edition of 50, signed and numbered by the artist
$300
At first glance, Deana Lawson’s images have a seemingly straightforward quality that dissolves into a complex set of questions about representation of the self, the construction of notions of beauty, and the nature of photographing – questions that will never have clear and finite answers, no matter how hard and long we look.
Lawson has received numerous awards, such as fellowships with the New York Foundation for the Arts (NYFA) and the Aaron Siskind Foundation. Her work has been exhibited at venues like the Spelman College Museum of Fine Art in Atlanta, GA, and Collette Blanchard Gallery in New York City. Lawson was a Light Work Artist-in-Residence in 2008.

Edition of 50 (unnumbered), signed by the artist
$450
In all of Andrea Modica’s photographs something is slightly askew. The full activity of every frame is never entirely revealed, nor ever completely concealed. Focus shifts from back to front and side to side. Hands obscure faces, and torsos stretch out of the frame or only appear in the background as distant details. Even when she abandons the devices of framing and focus to throw us off center, she can achieve the same results with the clarity of her juxtapositions, like the image of a young boy holding the severed tail of a goat. In these moments, and they occur throughout her work, Modica creates open-ended narratives where fact and fiction are merged and blurred in order to show us the rough edges of experience where uncertainty and caution meet anticipation and hope.

Pipo Nguyen-duy
The Walk Home, 2003
Archival inkjet print, 7 x 8.75″ on 8 x 10″ paper
Shipped in a 14 x 18″ mat
Edition of 50 (unnumbered), signed by the artist
$300
Pipo Nguyen-duy’s photographs are as emotionally moving as they are beautiful. His photography stems from the traditional style of landscape painting. According to Jennie Hirsh, his “reliance on the natural world as a theatrical apparatus uncovers collisions between nature and culture, past and present, in carefully crystallized visions that inscribe themselves onto classical Western visions of the (un)natural world.” His photographs hold references to mythology and history, and capture a thought-provoking vision of the American landscape and people.
His photographic style has been greatly influenced by the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001. Before the attacks, his work was more focused on the “back-story” of the landscapes he photographed, while the work is now focused more on reality and what is happening in the present. According to Stephen Borys, his work “shows us a landscape developing, changing, retreating and advancing-a land of multiple hues and conditions.”

Portrait photographer Suzanne Opton’s latest monograph Soldier / Many Wars reflects a curiosity about the military at a time of war.

I am after the human being,” writes Opton.

Archival inkjet print, 8 x 10″ on 8.125 x 10.125″ paper
Shipped unmatted, with framing recommendation from the artist
Edition of 50, signed and numbered by the artist
$300
Christian Patterson is a self-taught artist, born in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. Photographs are the heart of Patterson’s work, sometimes accompanied by drawings, paintings and readymade objects.
Prarie Grass Leak comes from Patterson’s recent project, Redheaded Peckerwood. The project utilizes a true crime story as the basis of a visual crime dossier, a cryptic collection of clues for the viewer to decipher. The project utilizes a multitude of photographic techniques to re-tell a tragic story from the past. It is exhibited with documents and objects related to the story.
Patterson’s Redheaded Peckerwood was published as a monograph by MACK in 2011 to critical international acclaim, was nominated for the 2012 Kraszna-Krausz Book Awards, won the prestigious 2012 Rencontres d’Arles Author Book Award, and is now in its third printing. In 2013 he was awarded a John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellowship. Patterson is represented by Rose Gallery in Santa Monica, CA and Robert Morat in Hamburg and Berlin, Germany. He lives and works in Brooklyn, New York.
Patterson participated in Light Work’s Artist-in-Residence Program in May 2010.

This catalogue features the stunning photographs of William Earle Williams. Until the release of the motion picture Glory in 1989, it was not well known that more than 180,000 black soldiers served in the Civil War. Williams’s images call attention to the sites made special through these soldiers’ contributions, so that their story becomes a part of our American story. The photographer has been pursuing this series for over ten years. He has photographed significant Civil War sites in the South and North, recording both historically recognizable as well as forgotten locations.
