“HOUSES FOR SALE”  January 5-March 2, 2019 at PHOTOGRAPHS DO NOT BEND GALLERY

“Houses For Sale” presents sixty-four photographs of domiciles from various times and locations. In his 2003 photograph “Barrio, Magdalena,” Esteban Pastorino Diaz presents aerial view of seemingly identical houses in a grid formation, but the tilt-shift focus he applies causes them to appear as a miniature model of a neighborhood. Bill Owens’ “Typical Californian” from 1971, by contrast, is taken from a couples backyard. They are sitting at a small table that appears to be located down in an empty swimming pool. The man and woman are having a meal. Above the man’s head, on the edge of the pool sits a large dog, in profile. Ira Wagner’s composition focuses on homes among the crisscrossing of telephone poles and lines, providing framing and depth as they angle and recede. Peter Brown creates an interesting composition in “Texline, Texas” when he take a perfectly centered home, its chimney in the middle of the top of the frame, then alters the symmetry with a woman standing off center against the wall.

Many of the photographers capture not only the structures, but also the interesting people that inhabit those places. Early Hudnall’s photographs are excellent examples. In the 1986 “Street Champion” group of kids of different ages pose playfully for the camera on the sidewalk in front of a house. One young boy in the back row stands out, triumphantly raising the boxing gloves he’s wearing. In “Flipping Boy” from 1983 the street scene is punctuated by an odd form, suspended in the air, that is a young boy frozen by the camera in the middle of a back flip. David Graham seems to have come upon an active scene in “Near Niagara Falls, New York, 1989.” An elderly man sits in a lawn chair in front of a home, to left and in the background in the doorway stands a second elderly man, while up on a ladder near the second story is a middle aged man. All the men focus solemnly on the photographer.

David Graham’s photo is held together through the composition of angles and lines: eaves, the ladder, doorway, walls; but, as in many of the photos, color plays a major role in cohesion. The photograph works through his dominance of red: the red house paint, the Bud logo on a cap, the flannel shirt, and an American flag hanging on the wall. The eccentrically painted house in Paul Sokal’s photograph, “Albany, Texas, 2014,” is not only colorful, but makes one wonder about the colorful person who inhabits the home. Jason Lee captures an ordinary residential scene of a red pickup parked in a driveway, but his attentive eye has caught the visual rhyme of the slat fence that has a large section painted in the same red. “Swedish Red-Comfortably Secure, 2006,” by Joakim Eneroth, is a beautiful large photograph of a large red barn dominating the snowy landscape.

A common theme in many photographs is abandonment. Structures are boarded up and deteriorating. Once vital domiciles are vacant. There is a beauty in these weathered places, but also a curiosity about those that once inhabited them. One wonders what led to the building’s and the neighborhood’s decline. These photographs provide a documentation of what will likely be one day gone.

“Going into Houston, I began to find the Fourth Ward, which was settled by freed slaves. I found the friendliness of the residents similar to the community I grew up in. It’s an ideal place to interact with people in a natural setting, where you can approach them and give them the utmost respect. I fell in love with it and this is what I have been doing for the last 50 years.”

BART CHAT 7/22/19

Hi all,

We had a great time at the Dallas Medianale Part II last week: great work, a great space, the people were inspired by what they saw and the performances were amazing. Thanks to all who helped make this happen.

This week, the Asian Film Festival Dallas continues strong. On Monday, when you are reading this, we co-sponsor the documentary short program that is at the Angelika at 1:30.  I hope to see you there.  I have not seen the program, but in years past it has been very strong. Some other films I would recommend are Bento Harassment, Long time No Sea, Jeronimo, Misma Swindler, How to Live in this World and Go Back to China. So, there are my picks.

Coming up next month is The Women’s Texas Film Festival, which will have programs at Methodist Hospital, which is a new venue.

For VAD, our next programs will be our cat and dog festival coming up in August and the 24 Hour Video Race, also in August.

Most of the films worlds oxygen will be sucked up by Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, which I am looking forward to and I have heard good things, but who knows? It will be playing many places but some theatres will be showing film prints, so go to those if you can.

At the Alamo, they are showing The Blair Witch Project, which was novel in its day, but I have no interest in revisiting that. The Tuesday film at The Magnolia is the Marx Brothers’ A Night at the Opera. I have not seen a Marx Brothers’ film in quite a while, and I think that might really be fun, as well as a great escape from the heat. 

Speaking of The Magnolia Theater they have been showing lots of documentaries lately. They are currently showing Maiden, which we discussed on The Fog of Truth. They are also showing Leonard and Marianne, and indie film about Leonard Cohen, which has got to be interesting as Nick Broomfield, who has filmed many docs about musicians and other cool people, directs.

In another programming, Monday night EarthX is showing Into the Canyon at the Angelika and it is free. In other screenings, you can see Henri Cartier-Bresson: The Impassioned Eye this Sunday at the PDNB gallery at 2:00 PM.

That is what I know, folks.  I’ll be in town all week before I head to the University Film and Video Association Conference. So, if you need me for something, better catch me this week.  #WomenTxFF #Herstory #Diverstory #AFFD #Ilovesubtitles #MockingbirdStation #AngelikaDallas #asiansinfilm #asianfilm
