Lith Printing Darkroom & Lecture Thursday presented by Gene Nocon
A hands-on workshop sponsored by Freestyle Photographic. What if we overexpose a piece of B&W photo paper in the darkroom, then develop it in a very dilute developer - for a long time? If we do it right we'll end up with a grainy print with dark shadows and delicate highlights, a beautiful, one-of-a-kind piece of art! Learn Lith Printing, a wonderful and fascinating alternative darkroom technique from Master Printmaker Gene Nocon.

Films by Photographers Shadow of the House/Photographer Abelardo Morell
“Things are not always what they appear to be,” says Cuban American photographer Abelardo Morell. Shadow of the House peers into his past and around the corners of his present to see what normally goes unseen. This film is a rare look into the life of one of America’s renowned photographers. A feature length film, Shadow of the House explores how Morell uses his art to make sense of a life up-ended by geographic, cultural, linguistic, and political dislocation. It is an intimate portrayal of how one man’s personal struggle with the themes of loss, exile, and self-determination reflects the ways in which we all work to construct narratives that unite the past with the present and memory with desire. Morell has used this tension to fuel a career as a remarkable artist.
