SUMMARY:FOB Dahlke exhibition by Allison Dinner
DESCRIPTION:Allison Dinner – FOB Dahlke\nBPPA member Allison Dinner’s project FOB Dahlke will be on exhibit in the Mayor’s Neighborhood Gallery\, on the 2nd floor\, at Boston City Hall. The exhibit will run from December 1\, 2019 through January 10\, 2020. FOB Dahlke is a story about an austere US Aviation Base called Forward Operating Base Dahlke that was opened in Afghanistan in 2018 by the US Army. The US Army opened this base as a remote location to conduct more air operations against the Taliban after Trump’s change in US involvement in the Afghanistan combat policy. All air missions\, including medevac\, combat\, and resupply\, are conducted daily from this base. Allison’s project features an in depth look at the 101st Airborne soldiers that were some of the first to be stationed at this base\, and helped build it from the ground up. Boston City Hall is located at 1 City Hall Sq. in downtown Boston.  \nCity Hall hours are 9am to 5pm\, Monday through Friday.

SUMMARY:2018 PoY Craig F. Walker speaks at Documentary Matters
DESCRIPTION:2018 Boston Press Photographers Association Photographer of the Year Craig F. Walker will talk about his work and present his award-winning series “Raising Connor” as part of Social Documentary Network’s ongoing Documentary Matters series at Digital Silver Imaging in Belmont. The event is free\, but advanced registration is required. You can do so by following this link. \n \nAbout Craig F. Walker\n \nCraig F. Walker joined the staff of The Boston Globe in June of 2015. During his 30-year career he has covered a broad range of stories including the aftermath of the collapse of the World Trade Center in New York\, the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq\, the United States military\, post-traumatic stress disorder\, the Occupy movement and the refugee migration crisis in Europe. Raised in York\, Pennsylvania\, Craig graduated from the Rhode Island School of Photography and began his career working for the Marlborough Enterprise and the Berkshire Eagle. In 1998 he started working at The Denver Post in Colorado where he won the Pulitzer Prize for Feature Photography for “Ian Fisher: American Soldier.” \nIn 2012\, Craig was awarded a second Pulitzer Prize for Feature Photography for “Welcome Home\, The Story of Scott Ostrom”. Craig was also named Newspaper Photographer of the Year in the Pictures of the Year International competition. \nIn 2019\, Craig was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for Feature Photography for “Raising Connor\,” the story of a young boy living with a complex developmental disability. Craig was also named Photographer of the Year in the Boston Press Photographers Association Pictures of the Year competition.  \nFeatured project\, “Raising Connor”\nConor is moody and unpredictable. He is easy to love\, affectionate\, and friendly. Vulnerable\, sweet\, devoted to family. Impulsive\, strong\, and overflowing with emotion. Dreaming of home\, always. Never quite at home\, anywhere. This is Connor Biscan\, a puzzle his family and caregivers have worked long and hard to solve\, a boy who lives at the intersection of autism and mental illness. It isn’t so much a rare place — as many as half of autistic children suffer from mental health problems — but it can be a deeply baffling one. The overlap between these afflictions is hard to untangle; diagnosis and treatment can be very difficult. And a health care system meant to help can instead be frustrating\, even harsh. \n \nAbout Documentary Matters\n \nDocumentary Matters is an initiative of the Social Documentary Network and Digital Silver Imaging to provide a place for photographers to meet with others involved with or interested in documentary photography and discuss ongoing or completed project. This is a free and open meeting for anyone interested in presenting\, viewing\, or discussing documentary photography. \nYou don’t need to be a professional\, expert\, or established–you just need to be committed to the documentary form and committed to learning from feedback from others. And you don’t need to be a photographer or presenting your work to attend. Everyone is invited to join us\, look\, listen\, and comment. Still photography\, multimedia\, and video encouraged. Documentary required.

SUMMARY:Members Night at the MFA Graciela Iturbide exhibit
DESCRIPTION:BPPA members night at the Museum of Fine Arts exhibit of photographs by Mexican photographer Graciela Iturbide\, Thursday March 14\, 6:30pm.  The MFA has graciously arranged for tickets for BPPA members to come see the exhibit together\, and for curator Kristen Gresh to speak about Iturbide\, the photographs and the exhibit. \nAttendees should meet at 6:15pm at the Huntington Avenue entrance to the MFA. BPPA Vice President Brian Snyder will be there with tickets and parking validation. Make sure you park in an MFA lot or garage to receive validation. \n“The photographs of Graciela Iturbide not only bear witness to Mexican society but express an intense personal and poetic lyricism about her native country. One of the most influential photographers active in Latin America today\, Iturbide captures everyday life and its cultures\, rituals\, and religions\, while also raising questions about paradoxes and social injustice in Mexican society. Her photographs tell a visual story of Mexico since the late 1970s—a country in constant transition\, defined by the coexistence of the historical and modern as a result of the culture’s rich amalgamation of cultures. For Iturbide\, photography is a way of life and a way of seeing and understanding Mexico and its beauty\, challenges\, and contradictions.”  -MFA\, Boston \nPlease RSVP so we have some idea of how many tickets to reserve.  The event is free for BPPA members and they may bring one guest to the event.

SUMMARY:Arlington: A Senior Portrait - Exhibition by BPPA member Paul Marotta
DESCRIPTION:A 107-year-old who still lives in her own home and routinely gets “the works” done at her hair salon so she can always look her best. A 90-year-old who goes to the Arlington Council on Aging fitness classes every week and has a smile so broad it’s contagious. A 96-year-old whose memory is exceedingly sharp and shows me her hands declaring she has yet to show any signs of arthritis. Seniors who play table tennis so hard they split the table tennis ball with the force of their strike. \nThe photo documentary\, Arlington: A Senior Portrait\, opens on October 22\, 2018 with a reception beginning at 6:00 pm at Arlington Town Hall\, 730 Massachusetts Avenue\, Arlington\, Massachusetts. The exhibit comprises more than 100 images on 9 panels\, each between 8-10ft long with work from 9 months of shooting in 2018 throughout Town of Arlington. Photography took place at the Arlington Council on Aging Senior Center\, senior housing complexes\, Old Schwamb Mill\, private homes and even at a hair salon with a 107-year-old. The presentation panels are deigned to unfold individual stories as well as completely immerse the viewer in the lives of Arlington seniors as they walk through the exhibit hallway in the old wing of the Arlington Town Hall. \nArlington: A Senior Portrait\, by photographer Paul Marotta\, is supported in part by a grant from the Arlington Cultural Council\, a local agency which is supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council\, a state agency. \n The exhibition will be on display until Nov. 22\, 2018.

SUMMARY:Cambridge Photojournalist Randy Goodman Presents: Iran Reflections
DESCRIPTION:Iran Reflections – ©Randy Goodman\nFrom the event website:  \n1979 Hostage Crisis to 2015 Nuclear Agreement\nJoin us for a slideshow and talk by Randy Goodman on her newest photo series as she discusses the changes in Iran from 1979 to today\, including the effects of the Iran Nuclear Deal on the citizens of the country.  \nCambridge photojournalist Randy H. Goodman has an eye for people\, politics and possibilities. She’s captured images from Iran’s Islamic revolution to recent times. During her 35-year career\, she combined her formal training as a political sociologist with her passion for documentary photography. \nHer first foreign assignment was Iran\, three months after the November 4\,1979 takeover of the U.S. Embassy.   She photographed a visit by a grassroots delegation of Americans who traveled to Tehran to meet with the Iranian students holding the U.S. hostages. \nIn 1981\, she\, along with two colleagues\, returned on an exclusive assignment for CBS-TV News.  At the time\, they were the only American journalists credentialed to work in Iran. Her third Iran assignment was for Time magazine (1983)\, where she toured the Iran-Iraq war zone\, covered breaking news events and photographed Ayatollah Khomeini from beneath her borrowed chador. \nIn 2009\, she produced her first exhibit of her Iran work titled IRAN: Images From Beneath a Chador: The Hostage Crisis and the Iran-Iraq War 1980-1983. The traveling exhibit was widely shown in the US and Europe. \nAfter a thirty-three year absence\, Randy returned to Iran in 2015 to photograph the societal changes during another pivotal period in that country’s history – – the signing of the Iran nuclear agreement. \nRandy’s photographs have been widely published in newspapers and magazines throughout the world including The New York Times\, The Boston Globe\, The Washington Post\, TIME and in Egypt\, France\, Hong Kong\, Great Britain\, Libya\, Italy and Spain. She has also made numerous appearances on radio and television programs discussing her Iran work.
