| "High
Adventure: The Pioneering Aerial Photographs of Mary Upjohn Meader"
On
September 16, 1937, Mary Upjohn took off from Kalamazoo, Michigan. Still in her
20s, she was beginning a pioneering flight that brought her over three continents.
In the pilot's seat was her first husband, surgeon and future American Geographical
Society President Richard Upjohn Light (1902-1994). Mary was the co-pilot, radio
operator, and photographer. The goal was to make a record of South American and
African land forms, city plans, farms, mines, and industrial installations. by

MAE WEEMS
Receives the 2005 Women In Photography International Distinguished Photographer
Award "My
responsibility as an artist is to work, to sing for my supper, to make art, beautiful
and powerful, that adds and reveals; to beautify the mess of a messy world, to
heal the sick and feed the helpless; to shout bravely from the rooftops and storm
barricaded doors and voice the specificity of our historical moment."
"The Louisiana Project,"
a new work by the noted artist Carrie Mae Weems that was commissioned as
part of the bicentennial celebrations surrounding the commemoration of the Louisiana
Purchase. Weems has a distinguished career as a photographer interested in history
and social critique and her work frequently addresses questions of race, class,
and gender. Charles Guice Contemporary
