Experimentation & Representation: The Photography of William Wegman
What do images of dogs teach us about art, our world and ourselves? Famous for his images of Weimaraners, William Wegman is one of America’s most popular photographers.
This summer, The Rockwell Museum and the Arnot Art Museum examine two facets of Wegman’s impressive career. At the Arnot Art Museum, visitors can explore Wegman’s depictions of his favorite models, a study in what it means to be human. The Rockwell Museum features more abstract photographs, experimental collaborations in which the dogs become the work of art.
This exhibition is made possible by Elise Johnson-Schmidt and Family.

Heroes Lecture | Earth Optimism in an Age of Doom and Gloom with Nancy Knowlton
zhlédnutí 88Před rokem
The media is full of tales of woe when it comes to climate and biodiversity, and the problems we face are indeed large, urgent and complex.

Kahlo was a disabled queer Mexican feminist & communist icon 100% muse she was like nothing he had ever seen. To love a human like her mist if been a wild ride.
Absolutely amazing. Brilliant work and artist! Thank you for sharing this lecture!
Such iconic and dramatic photos, he really had an amazing eye and mindset for portrait photography
Me gusta que pronuncian las palabras en español como debe ser. Pero su inglés también lo hablan muy bien
Que bonito bailan!
nathan , this is laurie cabots daughter penny , we would love to contact you laurie would like to speak to you
It’s absurd how many of his portraits are baked into the public mind of how that person looked. When I think of king or Einstein or any other person he photographed I think of his portrait. I didn’t realize that until now
It's true. He managed to capture the true person and what they were about, something a simple photo can't do.
Pure talent and Mastercraft of his field
Awesome instructor! She really cares & ❤ the little ballerinas
Thank you!
