Spirit of the Great Bear

A Photography Masterclass

Paul Nicklen

The first monographic study of American artist Alison Knowles, a significant yet overlooked cofounder of the Fluxus movement. Alison Knowles stands out as the sole female artist among the founders of Fluxus, yet she has remained an enigmatic, underrecognized figure in the history of art. Performing Chance fills a gap in the record, bringing to light Knowles's transformative body of work as it evolved from abstract painting in the late 1950s, to silkscreens, print media, and performance in the early 1960s, to groundbreaking works in digital poetry, acoustical art, and large-scale installations in the late 1960s-70s. Through her access to previously unpublished archival materials and direct interviews with the artist, Nicole L. Woods provides close readings of pivotal works, disclosing the ways Knowles instituted formal tactics that moved beyond modernist painting, championed principles of indeterminacy and chance, and fostered sociopolitical consciousness. Situating Knowles's innovations in various media within the distinct cultural contexts of Wiesbaden, London, Paris, New York City, and Los Angeles, Performing Chance brings this key artist back to her rightful place as a leader of the postwar avant-garde and provides a nuanced history of the role of women artists in Fluxus and beyond.

The story of photographer Edward Steichen’s deep connections to the natural world, from how it influenced his artistic practice to his award-winning garden &nbsp; In a 1937 article titled “Millions of Gardeners,” Life magazine published “Mr. Steichen . . . is known among photographers as one of the greatest portraitists clicking a shutter today. He is known among horticulturists as one of the greatest breeders of delphiniums who ever called the gods’ wrath down on a burrowing star-nosed mole.” For over sixty years, the pioneering American photographer Edward Steichen spent most of his spare time—and money—nurturing plants and gardens. It was an activity that sustained and inspired him, and through which he developed ardently held intellectual precepts regarding the interrelationship of creativity, nature, and art. Edward Steichen and the Garden explores Steichen’s artistic practice and his engagement with nature, gardening, and plant breeding, bringing to light the many ways in which the two pursuits were closely allied. The book’s abundant illustrations feature paintings and photographs by Steichen and fellow artists who painted in his garden, including Arthur B. Carles, John Marin, Katharine Knowles, and Marion Beckett. A selection of archival material such as family snapshots and awards for his delphiniums offers an intimate perspective on Steichen’s devotion to nature and his garden. &nbsp; Published in association with the George Eastman Museum &nbsp; Exhibition Schedule: &nbsp; George Eastman Museum, Rochester, NY (March 27–September 6, 2026) &nbsp; Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, Boston, MA (June 17–September 12, 2027) &nbsp; Reynolda House Museum of American Art, Winston-Salem, NC (October 16, 2027–January 8, 2028)

Edward Steichen and the Garden

The vibrant capital of South Korea, Seoul is a city of contrasts, a unique blend of tradition and modernity, with futuristic skyscrapers blending with traditional, ancient architecture. But at night is when the city really shines. As the sun sets, the city transforms into a dazzling metropolis. The skyline lights up and the bustling streets come alive with bright neon lights, street food vendors, and late night shoppers.&nbsp;Photographer Bal Bhatla - better known online as Mr Whisper - has been traveling to Seoul for years, capturing the photographs in Seoul After Dark, armed only with his camera and a keen eye for detail. A specialist in low-light photography, Bhatla captures the everyday moments of Seoul in a unique and compelling way, showing the city's residents, adventurous and carefree, chasing the night.&nbsp;Whether you're a lover of photography, a fan of Seoul, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of everyday moments, Seoul After Dark will leave you with a newfound appreciation for your city after dark.

How to Be Avant-Garde

Blazing Light&nbsp;is&nbsp;published to coincide with Mimi Plumb’s first solo museum exhibition of the same name (High Museum of Art, Atlanta, Georgia) and brings together three of her major bodies of work—The White Sky, Landfall and The Golden City,&nbsp;and&nbsp;The Reservoir—that collectively contemplate the anxieties of American life in the waning years of the Cold War and its aftermath. In the 1970s, Plumb began photographing as a teenager in the San Francisco suburb of Walnut Creek at a time marked by rapid development of the land coupled with global political and economic instability. Her early artistic life was defined by a burgeoning awareness of global warming, the AIDS epidemic, violent conflict in Latin America and the Middle East, and a looming threat of nuclear war. This atmosphere attuned Plumb to the evidence of such forces in the land, the built environment, and the ways people carry themselves and relate to one another—concerns that continue to abide in her work to this day. Plumb’s photographs foreground the presence of people, lending her images a greater degree of pathos and even notes of humorous absurdity. Though the artist embraces realism, her photographs are more ambient and enigmatic, inviting conjecture rather than providing documentary information. The publication will include texts by Gregory Harris, curator of the exhibition; Karen Irvine, chief curator and deputy director at the Museum of Contemporary Photography, Chicago, IL; and Lauren Richman, curator of photography at the Norton Museum of Art, West Palm Beach, FL. Plumb's work is held in numerous public collections, including the High Museum of Art (GA), San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (CA), Los Angeles County Museum of Art (CA), Museum of Fine Arts Boston (MA), Yale University Art Gallery (CT), and the Deutsche Börse Collection (Germany). The&nbsp;Mimi Plumb: Blazing Light&nbsp;exhibition will be on view at the High Museum of Art from February 6-May 5, 2026. The exhibition will then travel to the Johnson Museum at Cornell University, NY (summer 2026), the Norton Museum of Art in West Palm Beach, FL (winter 2026/2027), followed by the Museum of Contemporary Photography in Chicago, IL (spring 2027).
