Upcoming Events
Ralph Gibson, acclaimed photographer, joins us as November’s Insight Sunday speaker. Freshly returned from overseas and amidst a successful exhibition at Parrish Art Museum entitled Nature: Object, Gibson presents The Church’s audience with an exclusive look into his developing project Italia. The forthcoming photography book will be published in 2025 as part of the 100th Year anniversary celebration of Leica Camera. Join us as we explore the driving forces behind his current work, glean insight from his experiences, and see the behind-the-scenes work that goes into the publication of a photography book. After the discussion, there will be a Q&A with the artist.
Fiordaliso will be joined by Lindsay Morris, whose photography is included in the newly released book. The two will discuss the inspiration and impetus for the book and highlight the collaborative process, a process that Fiordaliso feels is gaining new traction in the post-COVID world. There will be a limited number of signed books available for those in attendance. Following the discussion there will be a Q&A with the audience.
Join Myrna Davis and April Gornik, co-curators of Yes, No, WOW: The Push Pin Studios Revolution for an exclusive look at the show from the curatorial perspective. Myrna and April will lead guests on a tour of the exhibition before inviting audiences to a discussion. Learn where the impetus and inspiration for the show came from, the perspectives they held during the selection process, and hear their reflections on the show as a whole. A Q&A with the speakers will follow the discussion.
“The right of interpretation now belongs to you, the viewer,” says filmmaker and documentarist, Nick Whelan. Join us for an Insight Sunday presentation of Nick’s short format film “Akrowa,” followed by an illuminating discussion about the work, including the pathos behind the imagery, and the way he uses his musical knowledge to find the rhythmic dance between images. A Q&A will follow the discussion.
