May 8, 2017 by adamuseum

Winding up the hills into the Santa Ynez Mountains, you might spot a brightly colored house perched proudly like a bird of paradise looking out from beneath the greenery. It is here that the AD&A interns met the Santa Barbara based artist Jane Gottlieb this week.

There are a number of inverted relations in the photographs Zahedi produces: image becomes object, artificial becomes naturalized, celebrity becomes art world product.

Ja'Tovia Gary's videos are powerful examinations of the complexity and multidimensionality of Black life. The title for her exhibition, A Care Ethic, is related to her desire to apply "an ethic of care" to her research and film making process and references the work of Black feminist writer and scholar Christina Sharpe. For more on Gary's film and video work: www.jatovia.com. Her exhibition opens July 14 and a talk is scheduled on July 26, 5:30pm.

Firooz Zahedi: that was then, this is now. Exhibition on view July 14-Sept 2, Talk scheduled Aug 31, 5:30pm. In several works, Zahedi has taken his own negatives and degraded them through random processes. He's poured liquids and chemicals over old negatives, sealed in plastic bags, and waited to see what happens. What has resulted is an interesting, materialistic change to the once pristine original, and often very recognizable Hollywood featured celebrity image. For more, come by @adamuseum soon! Also on view this summer, Women of Impact: A Collaboration with impactmania and Ja'Tovia Gary: A Care Ethic. #adamuseum #ucsb #impactmania #jatoviagary #firoozzahedi #photography #hollywood #film #feministstudies #blackstudies #media #university #museum #ucsbmcc #ucsbgrad

The exhibition Firooz Zahedi: that was then, this is now will be on view 7/14 - 9/2 with a Talk on 8/31 at 5:30pm. Come see what SB Magazine is writing about in their Summer issue: Altered Focus, Master Photographer Firooz Zahedi Self De-Constructs by L.D. Porter. "Film is getting forgotten. I wanted to pay homage to the film itself.", Firooz Zahedi.
