Trying Them On | Presented by Humble Arts Foundation and Hendershot Gallery
Posted by Daylight Books on
This group exhibition explores the fascination with "the other" through gendered, sexual, racial and subcultural costuming. The exhibiting photographers depict Europeans and Westerners who glamorize and vilify other cultures, at times presenting them as the enemy, while at others declaring them a cultural muse. On the surface, the latter appears to be an attempt to understand or elevate them, but in many cases this actually leads to further complication by turning their identities into caricatures. This exhibition also explores the motivations for this role-play: is it an act of mere flattery? What does it mean to try on the skin or cultural signifiers of another?
Exhibiting photographers: Claire Beckett, Helen–Maurene Cooper, Andrea Robbins and Max Becher, and Michael Bühler-Rose
On view: January 21 – February 27, 2010
Opening reception: Thursday, January 21 – 6–8 p.m.

Peter Van Agtmael's Daylight Podcast Featured by PBS's POV
Posted by Daylight Books on
Peter Van Agmael's Daylight Podcast, commemorating the five year anniversary of the Iraq war, is now featured on PBS's POV. Since the beginning of 2006, Van Agmael has documented the consequences of America's Wars, at home and abroad. In 2008, he helped organize the exhibition and book Battlespace, a retrospective of unseen work from 22 photographers covering Iraq and Afghanistan. He is represented by Magnum Photos.
Produced by PBS, Regarding War is a place for citizens and soldiers to share stories about past and current conflicts, and to discuss the realities of war, both on the home front and the battlefield.

Reflections on attending the Lishui International Photography Festival published in Fraction Magazine
Posted by Daylight Books on
Fraction Magazine has assembled a wonderful online group show featuring the work of many American and European photographers who exhibited as part of the 2009 Lishui International Photography Festival. Daylight Editor Taj Forer attended the festival as a curator and was invited by Fraction to write a piece about the experience. His article and snapshots from the trip can be found here: http://www.fractionmagazine.com/groupshow/taj-forer-on-lishui/
