Winter Updates

Dear Subscribers,

I’m starting a newsletter, and I would love your thoughts if you care to share them! Is this a good amount of information? Is it clean and readable? Yada yada? Thank you for any feedback you have.

Exhibitions
Hard Times are Fighting Times is on view at Baxter St at the Camera Club of New York through February 26th as part of Baxter St’s 2024 Mid-Career Initiative.

Events
Kelli Connell and I spoke at Baxter St about our work, particularly her beautiful book Pictures for Charis. Our conversation is recorded here.

My virtual artist talk looking at radical and family history through archival practice, documentary photography and photobook making will be held via the Miami-Dade Public Library System on Thursday, March 13th from 6:00 – 7:00 PM.

I’ll be in conversation about with Randi Malkin Steinberger about archives – objectivity, preservations, grief, relief, and patina versus decay – at MASS MoCA Friday, April 18th at 5:00 PM.

“Jed Proujansky and Joan Deely are real ones.”

Dear Dave | ALICE PROUJANSKY: “Hard Times are Fighting Times” BAXTER ST CAMERA CLUB, New York | Alexis Clements
“The image seems to ask us how a life takes shape beyond the slogans. How do beliefs ripple and rupture across generations? How does a radical leftist care for their family, and what does that family become?”

“In the colored photographs of FBI surveillance files and family ephemera, objects perform.”

The Counter Histories issue of Aperture Magazine, produced in collaboration with Magnum Foundation and which includes my work, was nominated for an ASME Award.

Education
I’ve hosted tours of Hard Times are Fighting Times for students from FIT, NYU, MICA, the High School of Fashion Industries, Eastside Community High School and New Design High School. Let me know if you’d like to come by!
