We normalise way too many things that we should be fighting to stop.

The black and white photographs in The Group for Mutual Improvement were taken in a vacant lot behind photographer Jordan Baumgarten’s home in Philadelphia, where he and his neighbours spent much of their time together. His book is a document of these gatherings which took place over a period of 10 years. The Group for Mutual Improvement by Jordan Baumgarten is published by GOST books.

Jordan Baumgarten: Slow Blink Open Mouth

Please consider purchasing a print from Jordan Baumgarten, who is currently fundraising to cover publishing costs of his latest photography book, Slow Blink Open Mouth, soon to be published by GOST. Jordan has been a friend and inspiration over the years, and this is a great way to show your support for the arts in a direct, tangible way.

From Jordan:

"Slow Blink Open Mouth is a glimpse into the rampant chaos and lawlessness present in a place with no oversight. With that apparent lawlessness, chaos is inevitable; that chaos is now evident, with the city of Philadelphia in the grip of the opioid crisis. In this world, private moments are public, animals and humans roam free, fueled by id, and always, somewhere, there is a fire burning. My neighborhood, Kensington, happens to be the nexus for those in and around Philadelphia seeking heroin, and all that it entails. The title Slow Blink Open Mouth comes from the pictograph illustrating “severe pain” in hospital universal pain assessment tools. I discovered this while in the hospital after someone stuck me with a used heroin needle during my work on this project. The title is also meant to convey being stoned or astonished, as well as the feelings of bliss and ecstasy. At its core, the project is about the opioid epidemic and its supporting addiction-based economy. While all the photographs were made in Philadelphia, the project is not about that specific place. Rather, the city serves as a microcosm to discuss issues tearing apart the fabric of our social landscape. I ask that you consider the following in an effort to support my work: Portfolio of prints from the project + copy of the book: edition of 3 - $5,000 each Special Edition Book with 5 8x10 prints: edition of 10 - $1,000 each 16x20 print + copy off the book: edition of 5 - $800 each If you’re interested, please check out Slow Blink Open Mouth on my website to choose a photo or photos you would like."

Scaling Back on Brassy Pomp, OpCarolina Brings Us a More Classic and Elegant Aïda

Scaling Back on Brassy Pomp, OpCarolina Brings Us a More Classic and Elegant Aïda

Review: Opera Carolina Presents Aïda By Perry Tannenbaum April 7, 2022, Charlotte, NC – Premiered in Egypt in late 1871 and brought home to Milan less than two months later, Giuseppe Verdi’s Aïda has become synonymous with all that’s grandiose and spectacular in grand opera. Opera Carolina has now produced this signature work nine times since its founding in 1948, only once allowing more than a…

Don Giovanni - Oper Zürich 25.01.2022

Don Giovanni - Oper Zürich 25.01.2022 #Mozart #SebastianBaumgarten #JordandeSouza #Wiederaufnahme #Rezension #Opernkritik #Oper #OperZürich #PhilharmoniaZürich

Sebastian Baumgartens ungewöhnlicher “Don Giovanni” von 2013 an der Oper Zürich erlebte nach pandemie-bedingter Verschiebung seine Wiederaufnahme mit komplett neuer Cast und man muss feststellen, diese Inszenierung ist relativ gut gealtert und wird (was man an Pausengesprächen so aufschnappt) immer noch kontrovers diskutiert… (more…)
