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.

SUMMARY:"Chasing the Sparks" exhibition opening
DESCRIPTION:Join Pulitzer Prize winning photographer and videographer Stanley J. Forman for a gallery talk! \nPulitzer Prize winning photographer and videographer Stanley Forman\, photographer David Oxton (Rollie Oxton’s youngest son) and photographer Robert Wilson will share their thoughts and answer questions during this presentation and panel discussion. \nThe exhibit will be open from 1 PM until 5 PM | gallery talk is at 2:30 PM on May 7\, 2017. Exhibit poster and signed photographs will be available for purchase. \nWe are located on the top floor at 41 Valley Road in Nahant. See our website for location and parking details.The gallery is always open by appointment. Feel free to contact us at info@41gallery.com \nPhotojournalism of Roland Oxton\, Stanley Forman and Robert Wilson\nA new exhibition at 41Gallery features news photography from an era where unrestricted access to news events\, ingenuity and a knack for being in the right place at the right time always produced great photojournalism\, captured dramatic moments and often… award winning results! \n“Chasing The Sparks” brings together three photographers whose work spans several decades of news photography in the greater Boston area. The photographers\, all with a North Shore connection\, strive to capture moments… sparks if you will\, that communicate the essence of the scene unfolding before them. This exhibit showcases some of the best examples of those efforts. \nRoland “Rollie” Oxton served as a US Army photo corps photographer during World War II and went on to become a Pulitzer Prize winning photographer for the Record American/Boston Herald. For almost three decades his work captured the range of human emotion from sheer terror to moments of joy and even humor. \nStanley Forman is a photojournalist and videographer whose work has won him three Pulitzer Prizes and many other awards. Stanley’s career began when his father gave him a camera almost 50 years ago. While on staff for the Boston Herald American\, Stanley’s work set the standard for spot news photography creating powerful images that have stood the test of time. He continues to bring us his unique visual perspective and uncanny sense of timing as a videographer for WCVB-TV in Boston. \nRobert Wilson photographed for the Cambridge Chronicle and Somerville Journal back in the mid-70’s and early 1980’s. As a staff photographer for the Somerville Journal his news and feature story work captured city life… people\, parades\, poodles\, politics\, police and fire.
