Steve Bliss: Finding Perfect Subjects

In this Anatomy of a Photo, photographer Steve Bliss recounts how, when they were young, his two boys became his photographic subjects and how he realized that they were stand-ins for him or, as he says, vice versa. In any case, it’s part of the joy and drama of being father who was once also a child. See Steve's photo at Studio Aesculapius.com.

In our Challenging Cultural Times, Steve Bliss tells Stories of the Complex Relationship Art has to Nostalgia and Truth

Steve Bliss is serious about the value art can bring to a fractured society, yet he recognizes that elements of art can also be used to manipulate a culture. Bliss believes there is a truth that can be approached through photography, despite its proclivity to nostalgia—capturing a romanticized or idealized feeling of the past—and he appreciates the turn photography has taken toward awakening a sense beyond nostalgia. Bliss is frank, funny, and unpretentiously intelligent in the stories he tells of his art and art in general. Join us for this enlivening discussion.

Josephine Sacabo Tells a Story of Her Journey Toward Transcendence and Connection

Josephine Sacabo’s art seeks transcendence and connection. She eschews any chasing after artistic fashion in favor of diving into what she loves. In this way she connects with those who view her work. The many layers of her work evoke layers of being, some disturbing, yes, but ultimately transcending such disturbance to “come full circle” with compassion and beauty.

Joe Harjo and Native Visibility: Not Monolithic, but Extraordinarily Diverse

Joe Harjo says he didn’t have “access to seeing ‘artist as profession,’” while he was growing up in Oklahoma as a member of the Muscogee (Creek) nation. When he told a guidance counselor in high school that he wanted to teach, the counselor rebuffed him. When he said he wanted to be an artist, he got a similar response. Now he’s both artist and teacher, and his work tries to counter misrepresentations of Native peoples in popular culture. After a particularly difficult year of isolation, an injured knee, the resurgence of racial strife, and Covid, Harjo discovered his origins anew, both as an artist and as a Native person. He felt “lifted” and “carried through” by histories, his own and that of his ancestors, and he shared that discovery in a series of prints. It’s one of the mysteries of art that you will find something of yourself in his story as well. See Joe Harjo's art at Studio Aesculapius.com and JoeHarjo.com.
