Arnold Newman Lecture Series: Tillman Crane & Richard Tuschman

Join us for the next event in our 2023 Arnold Newman Lecture Series! We’ll hear from Tillman Crane and Richard Tuschman about their work and careers as photographers, and end the evening with a Q&A with the audience.

The event is free and open to the public. Parking is available on campus.

Tillman Crane’s distinctive platinum photographs combine 19th century materials with a 21st century aesthetic. From photojournalist to teacher and artist he has honed his technique and mastered his craft over the past 35 years. He made his first platinum print in 1987 and since 2001 his work has been exclusively shown as platinum prints. He works with 5×7, 8×10 and 5×12 view cameras. Today’s images focus on the unique sense of place he finds in the ordinary, everyday locations where he lives and teaches.

Tillman will be on campus teaching Platinum Printing in the 21st Century the week of this lecture (AUG 7–11).

Richard Tuschman began experimenting with digital imaging in the early 1990s, developing a style that synthesized his interests in photography, painting and assemblage. Tuschman’s work has been exhibited at galleries and museums nationally and internationally, including the Museum of Contemporary Art in Krakow, Poland, AIPAD in NYC, and the Prix de la Photographie, Paris. His photographs have been published in numerous online magazines/journals including Slate, LensCulture, The Guardian, Huffington Post, and der Spiegel. Tuschman’s projects have three times been selected to the Photolucida Critical Mass Top 50, he was a finalist for the New Orleans Photo Alliance Clarence John Laughlin Award in 2015 and 2016, and was named a New York Foundation for the Arts Fellow in Photography in 2016. Richard Tuschman currently lives and works in New York City.

Richard will be on campus teaching Staging the Cinematic Photograph the week of this lecture (AUG 7–11), then The Art and Craft of Photoshop Post Production the following week (AUG 14–18).
