One Hundred Years Ago: George Eastman in 1923
This annual display in the historic mansion provides a glimpse of George Eastman’s life and work one hundred years ago. The new selection of objects highlights the goings on in 1923—most notably the release of the Ciné-Kodak and 16mm motion picture film and a 10-week expedition in the Cassiar region of Alaska and British Columbia, which became his favorite camping destination for the remainder of his life.
Gregory Halpern: 19 winters / 7 springs
19 winters / 7 springs contends with the idea of Buffalo, New York, and the lives of its inhabitants—its human and animal life, its architecture and landscape—all rendered by Gregory Halpern in their dynamic complexity. This exhibition plots the cyclical nature of time and the passage of seasons, but Halpern’s photographs also register both the visual evidence of history and the particularity of life in the present.
Gillian Laub: Southern Rites
In Southern Rites, Gillian Laub engages her skills as a photographer, filmmaker, and visual activist to examine the realities of racism and raise questions that are simultaneously painful and essential to understanding the American consciousness.
Selections from the Collection
MEMBER MOVIE NIGHT | Chimmie Fadden Out West
Silent Tuesdays Chimmie Fadden Out West, was Cecil B. DeMille’s follow up to his very successful film version of Chimmie Fadden (1915). Both films starred Victor Moore—probably best known to modern audiences as the destitute father from Make Way for Tomorrow—as the loveable Bowery hooligan, Chimmie Fadden.
