Columbia College in Columbia, SC, Hosts Two More Views From the Edge
The Columbia College Art Department in Columbia, SC, presents Views: Media Photography: Recent Work by Members of the SC Chapter of the ASMP in Goodall Gallery and Regional New Media Productions in the Loft Gallery of Spears Music/Art Center. The exhibit, a part of the Views from the Edge of the Century project sponsored by the South Carolina Arts Commission, Bank of America and the National Endowment of the Arts, will be on view through Mar. 26.
The Art Department is proud to present work by members of the SC Chapter of the American Society of Media Photographers, Inc. in this exhibit. It is a broad overview of some of the top professional photographers in the state. Some of the works included in the show are photographs commissioned by clients; others give a feel for the personal work that these photographers pursue.
ASMP is a trade organization which promotes photographers rights, educates photographers in better business practices, and produces business publications for photographers. It was founded in 1944 by a handful of the world's leading photojournalists and is recognized internationally for its leadership role. ASMP has over 5,000 members, including many of the worlds greatest photographers, in 40 chapters nationwide.
The ASMP has three purposes: To protect and promote the interests of photographers whose work is for publication, to promote high professional standards and ethics, to cultivate friendship and mutual understanding between photographers. Please visit their website at: (http://www.asmp.org).
The phrase "new media" has come to
refer to digital multi-media productions. New media works are
hybrid productions that put together a combination of sound, images,
text and/or video in a digital format. The explosion of the Internet
in the last five years has familiarized most viewers with the
medium. Views: Regional New Media Productions, in the Loft
Gallery, brings together some of the most interesting commercial
new media productions created by regional designers.
