Virginia Catherall is a Sweater Girl for Our Age
In the tattooed hands of Virginia Catherall—inch markings on her left hand for ease of measuring lengths in purl and knit—two simple sticks and a single strand of yarn transform into wearable landscapes that capture the sublime beauty of Utah’s salt flats and vistas of glacier-carved mountains.
David Pace: Stewart has no credibility to say we should rise above partisanship
(Samuel Corum | The New York Times) Rep. Chris Stewart (R-Utah) during a House Intelligence Committee impeachment inquiry hearing in Washington, Nov. 20, 2019. I agree with Rep. Chris Stewart that America needs to pull together as one team to contain, mitigate and otherwise manage the COVID-19 (coronavirus) which is now a pandemic.
Images in Transition: Wirephoto 1938-1945
Using a collection of images from World War II, this new photobook toys with the history of the wirephoto, questioning our reliance on photographs as records of hard evidence. Today we share photographs with each other in a fraction of a second through countless global platforms, including Facebook messenger, Instagram, WeChat and email.
Harlem Socialite, Lana Turner
What happens when dressing for church transforms into avant garde expression? This photographer captures the incredible style of Harlem socialite Lana Turner. Photographer Dario Calmese first met Lana Turner, a Harlem socialite and fashionable character, a few years ago at the historic Abyssinian Baptist Church in Harlem while he was browsing a selection of hats for a fashion story.
The Romance of Science, Ira Flatow-style
It’s hard to find fault when academics and other specialists in arcane subjects such as ornithology and ecology integrate with popular culture. Why? Because scientific inquiry belongs to the people. For many, the voice of WNYC’s Ira Flatow is the voice of science, much as Bill Nye the Science Guy was for years the average American child’s portal to the relevance and wonder of empirical science, and Carl Sagan was, earlier, its TV evangelist.
The Importance of Being More Than a Fashion Photographer
Peter Lindbergh is famous around the world for advancing the genre of fashion photography. For example, he is one of the photographers credited with launching the era of the “top model,” as he shot the first covers of American Vogue edited by the renowned Anna Wintour. Created by the Kunsthal Museum in Rotterdam, the exhibition “A Different Vision on Fashion Photography” was later shown at Reggia di Venaria in Italy after traveling to Munich.
Op-ed: Rep. Stewart, the grants Utah receives from NEH are incalculable
In the 10 years that I have been employed full-time in the culture sector, I can't remember a single year when the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) and the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) haven't been under attack.
Karaba Brick Quarry - Video interview with David Pace | LensCulture
Karaba is a small African village in southwestern Burkina Faso. Outside the village, a short distance from the dusty main road, is a quarry where men carve bricks from solid stone using only picks and shovels. The rock is called laterite (from the Latin “later” meaning “brick”). The quarry has been in constant use for nearly 30 years. The bricks, loaded onto wagons and taken to nearby villages, are the basic building blocks for the homes, buildings and walls that form the surrounding communities.

Op-ed: Rehabilitate your image of Clinton, Utahns
But in Utah Clinton is in the dog house for other reasons as well. I'm told she seems to personify "pay-to-play" politics. Added to that is that she's a "liberal" who will stack the Supreme Court deck with activist judges. To be a politician, by definition, is to be compromised. Mormons, who make up 60 percent of the Utah population but 85 percent of its Republican voters, can't seem to get over the idea that all politicians "pay to play," some more ethically (and legally) than others.
Op-ed: Rehabilitate your image of Clinton, Utahns
There's been some speculation that for the first time in over 50 years the state of Utah could vote for the Democratic nominee for the president of the United States. As a self-described moderate living in the Beehive State, I would welcome that. As someone whose Mormon ancestors "crossed the plains" to Utah in the 19th century, I'm not so sure it's going to happen. This is not because my ancestors wouldn't find themselves voting for a progressive candidate or a woman.

Op-ed: Utah arts division should defend the arts instead of playing politics
This month Utah welcomed the National Assembly of Arts Councils (NASAA) for its annual convention. Unfortunately, the Utah Division of Arts and Museums has never been more compromised. Long known as the Utah Arts Council, the agency is governed by an incompetent state department, a terrible example of how to govern state arts programs across the country tasked with cobbling together and disbursing the few funds the country as a whole provides to arts and arts education programming.
Testing new ways to survey voters
The experiments will build on similar online surveys GfK conducted for AP during last year’s midterm elections in Georgia and Illinois. Candidate estimates from the two GfK surveys were significantly more accurate than the exit poll, both among Election Day and absentee voters. In addition, the online survey in Georgia did not require an expensive telephone survey of absentee voters to supplement the exit poll.
