Photography of Appalachia on display at LWC through February 28 Exhibit entitled 'Visions of the Rural South: The Photography of Doris Ulmann' One photo with this article By Emily Fryman frymane@lindsey.edu COLUMBIA, Ky. -- Photographs of Appalachia are now on display at Lindsey Wilson College. The exhibit, Visions of the Rural South: The Photography of Doris Ulmann, features works by the late Doris Ulmann. The show is on display in the Katie Murell Library through February 28. A member of the Pictoral Photographers of America, Ulmann began taking pictures of artists, writers and residents of her hometown of New York City during the 1920s and 1930s until her death in 1934. In 1932 Ulmann began a series of Appalachian folk arts and crafts pictures for Allen Eatons critically acclaimed book, Handicrafts of the Southern Highlands. Ulamnn also was well-known for the portraits she shot of Appalachias poor and elderly. Ullman defines what constitutes an interesting face A face that has the marks of having lived intensely, that expresses some phase of life, some dominant quality or intellectual power, constitutes for me an interesting face, Ulmann said in an early 1930s interview. For this reason the face of an older person, perhaps not beautiful in the strictest sense, is usually more appealing than the face of a younger person who has scarcely been touched by life. Ulmanns work has been displayed in New York galleries and art magazines. Her pictures were published in Portraits of the Medical Faculty of the Johns Hopkins University, A Portrait Gallery of American Editors and Roll, Jordan Roll. The Katie Murell Library is open to the public from 7 a.m.-11 p.m. CST Monday-Thursday, 7 a.m.- 5p.m. CST on Friday, Hours CST on Saturday and 1-11p.m. CST on Sunday. The display runs through February 28. Direct comments are not available.
