FotoFocus, a Cincinnati nonprofit organization that supports international photography exhibitions and events, will present its Spring 2016 Lecture and Visiting Artists Series with photographer Jo Ann Callis at the Cincinnati Art Museum on Wednesday, February 24 at 7pm.
As part of the lecture, Callis will speak in conversation with Rose Shoshana, Director of ROSEGALLERY in Santa Monica, California. Earlier this year, ROSEGALLERY released a portfolio of never-before-seen black & white and color images from Callis 1970s series Early Black and White and Early Color. Compared to her well-known domestic photographs, the over-sexualized images of the female body speak to the continual experimentation with fragmented narratived in Callis’ work. In conjunction with the exhibition, Aperture published the book “Jo Ann Callis: Other Rooms”, the first publication to comprehensively feature the artist’s mid-1970s investigations of the nude body and sexuality.
