The Photo Awesome Club will host a visiting artist lecture and potluck dinner on Monday, January 29, 2007 at 6:00pm. All photography students are invited to attend and to join the photo club. For information about what to bring to the potluck please e-mail Valentina [vvitol20 at student.scad.edu].
The visiting artist will be Steve Bliss. He will give a presentation on the work from his recent exhibition, “Boys: Captured and Positioned”.
“Boys: Captured and Positioned” is a collection of personal photographs featuring the artist’s sons. The collection shows candid, sincere moments captured without intervention. The images were created using a variety of cameras, film types, formats and digital resolutions.
Bliss has been photographing his sons, ages 7 and 10, their entire lives. The show addresses the boys growth while detailing the Savannah environment in which they were born and raised. Bliss credits his sons as his inspiration, as well as the work of photographer Emmet Gowin.
Bliss earned an M.F.A. in photography at Ohio University and a B.A. in studio art at the University of New Hampshire. Bliss is a professor at SCAD and has served as the dean of Communication Arts since 2005. He was chair of the photography department from 2001–05.
