DORIS ULMANN
EXHIBIT OPENS
AT THE HOPEWELL MUSEUM
The
largest exhibit of the photographs of Doris Ulmann since 1946 opened February
10 at the Hopewell Museum in Paris, KY. The exhibit, "Doris Ulmann's
Passionate Portraits of America," coincides with publishing of the
first-ever full biography of Ulmann, a gifted artist who was one of the
foremost photographers of the early twentieth century.
Photographer
Doris Ulmann (1882-1934) worked from 1917 until days before her death
in August 1934, producing images of authors and editors, doctors and scientists,
rural African Americans, mountain Appalachians and Indians. Harvard psychiatrist
Robert Coles has said that these photos "come closer to more truths
than perhaps anyone's words can evoke."
The
46 Ulmann photographs in the exhibit are all owned by Bourbon Countians.
Most of the vintage artworks are from the collection of Gordon and Lyn
Layton and one belongs to Martha Bennett Stiles, author and granddaughter
of the noted author John Bennett, whose portrait by Ulmann is included
in the exhibit.
The exhibit is curated by Lyn and Margaret Layton, who write in their
exhibit introduction, "Ulmann's works are photographically significant
because of the difficulty of the techniques she used, her unusual approach
to photographing her subjects, and the critical acclaim she earned in
her day -- even Eleanor Roosevelt was one of her admirers!
The
Life and Photography of Doris Ulmann, by Philip Walker Jacobs,
available. Includes twelve of the 45 "Doris Ulmann's Passionate Portraits
of America" photographs, or variants.
The
exhibit continues through May 30, 2001.
The Hopewell
Museum, 800 Pleasant Street, Paris, Kentucky
Wednesday to Saturday, noon to 5 p.m. and Sunday 2 to 4 p.m.,
