 "MOHAMMED'S FIRE, A JURY PARDON AND A PHOTOGRAPH
Michael Dubiner
The gentleman in this image is Samuel H. Mohammed. I, and some others simply refer to him as Mohammed.
According to newspaper reports he led a diverse life. At one time, he was a linebacker and earned a college degree. In the mid-1990's much of his time was spent philosophising around his neighborhood and in a coin laundry. One day, Mohammed broke into a crack house that was plaguing his neighborhood. Carrying a can of lighter fluid, Mohammed emptied the contents on items strewn about and set the place on fire.

Her images have been bought by greeting card companies and have been published in magazines around the world.
At the start of the Millennium Scarlet`s `Manipulated Manipulations` Exhibition was shown at the Barbican Center, London.
``Every photograph has in some way been `set up` and `manipulated` even before the image goes into the camera.``
"After it has been `captured` I can again manipulate, alter, falsify and create and with the advent of technology came the appeal of taking `straight` photography into the realms of fantasy.``
Her Digital Art Work is printed on to treated, textured, canvas and water color papers.
"It has been and remains a passionate, magical and exciting journey."

 Brian Belefant has had one of his images accepted into the prestigious Artisans 2003 National Juried Exhibition. The show runs from October 7-30 at the Artisans Gallery in Mill Valley.
About ten years ago, I began experimenting with alternative processes-varying everything from exposure to processing to printing. Two years ago, I nailed it. I came upon a combination of techniques that get my photographs to look the way my eye sees. And in the process, I developed an entirely new method of camera filtration.

MAJOR ACQUISITION OF WORKS
BY ACCLAIMED PHOTOGRAPHER
DAVID LEVINTHAL ON VIEW
AT BIRMINGHAM MUSEUM OF ART
THROUGH DECEMBER 14, 2003
Through December 14, 2003, visitors to the Museum will be able to view a remarkable new acquisition of photographs by internationally-acclaimed artist, David Levinthal. The 29 photographs, all large-format polaroids, span the artist's entire career, from his breakthrough work in Hitler Moves East (1977) to his most recent Barbie series, Girlfriend! The Barbie Sessions by David Levinthal, shown at the BMA in 2000
With this acquisition, the Museum now houses the largest and most comprehensive collection of works by David Levinthal of any public institution. Levinthal's photographs will be on view in the Arrington Gallery on the second floor and is free and open to the public. From the beginning of his career in the early 1970s Levinthal has photographed toys that blur the boundaries between fact and fiction, while tackling such controversial subjects as Nazism, racism, and sexual fantasy. The Wild West, American Beauties, Desire, and Barbie are some of the series - all undertaking subtle social critiques - represented in this group of images. Among these works are some of Levinthal's earliest images, small black and white photographs that pre- date his seminal work with toy soldiers published in the book Hitler Moves East: A Graphic Chronicle, 1941-43 (1977). In addition, there are four unique Polaroid SX-70 photographs from the Modern Romance series, haunting nocturnal images that depict a blurry world of loneliness and lurid encounter.
For more information, please contact Christen McKinney, Marketing and Public Relations Associate at the BMA at (205) 254-2566 x3975 or cmckinney@artsbma.org; or David Moos, Curator of Contemporary Painting and Sculpture at the BMA, at 205.254.2970 or dmoos@artsbma.org;
