Annie Leibovitz: Pilgrimage |
A selection of photographs from
photographer Annie Leibovitz’s Pilgrimage project featuring images of
significant historic American sites will be on display from Oct. 25, 2012
through January 20, 2013 at the Gettysburg National Military Park Museum and
Visitor Center.
The exhibition features more than 70 photographs, includes 2 images from
Gettysburg. |

“From the beginning, when I was watching
my children stand mesmerized over Niagara Falls, this project was an exercise
in renewal,” said Leibovitz. “It taught me to see again.”
The pictures, although there are no people in them, are in a certain sense
portraits of subjects that have shaped Leibovitz’s distinctly American view of
her cultural inheritance. Visiting the homes of iconic figures, including
Eleanor Roosevelt, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Louisa May Alcott, Pete Seeger, and
Elvis Presley, as well as places such as Niagara Falls, Gettysburg and the
Yosemite Valley, she let her instincts guide her to related subjects—hence the
title Pilgrimage.
“Gettysburg is such an important place in American history,” said Gettysburg
Foundation President Joanne M. Hanley. “Millions of people make their own
pilgrimage of sorts here every year, to stand on these fields and reflect on
the battle of Gettysburg’s effect on our nation—an effect we are still feeling
today. The Pilgrimage exhibition helps people understand that Gettysburg is
very much relevant in our lives today.”
Annie Leibovitz: Pilgrimage is presented at Gettysburg by the Gettysburg
Foundation; the exhibition is organized by the Smithsonian American Art
Museum. The Bernie Stadiem Endowment Fund provided support for the exhibition,
and the C.F. Foundation of Atlanta supports the museum’s traveling exhibition
program, Treasures to Go. The prints were made by David Adamson Editions in
Washington, D.C.

Annie Leibovitz: Pilgrimage |
A selection of photographs from
photographer Annie Leibovitz’s Pilgrimage project featuring images of
significant historic American sites will be on display from Oct. 25, 2012
through January 20, 2013 at the Gettysburg National Military Park Museum and
Visitor Center.
The exhibition features more than 70 photographs, includes 2 images from
Gettysburg. |

“From the beginning, when I was watching
my children stand mesmerized over Niagara Falls, this project was an exercise
in renewal,” said Leibovitz. “It taught me to see again.”
The pictures, although there are no people in them, are in a certain sense
portraits of subjects that have shaped Leibovitz’s distinctly American view of
her cultural inheritance. Visiting the homes of iconic figures, including
Eleanor Roosevelt, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Louisa May Alcott, Pete Seeger, and
Elvis Presley, as well as places such as Niagara Falls, Gettysburg and the
Yosemite Valley, she let her instincts guide her to related subjects—hence the
title Pilgrimage.
“Gettysburg is such an important place in American history,” said Gettysburg
Foundation President Joanne M. Hanley. “Millions of people make their own
pilgrimage of sorts here every year, to stand on these fields and reflect on
the battle of Gettysburg’s effect on our nation—an effect we are still feeling
today. The Pilgrimage exhibition helps people understand that Gettysburg is
very much relevant in our lives today.”
Annie Leibovitz: Pilgrimage is presented at Gettysburg by the Gettysburg
Foundation; the exhibition is organized by the Smithsonian American Art
Museum. The Bernie Stadiem Endowment Fund provided support for the exhibition,
and the C.F. Foundation of Atlanta supports the museum’s traveling exhibition
program, Treasures to Go. The prints were made by David Adamson Editions in
Washington, D.C.

Annie Leibovitz: Pilgrimage |
A selection of photographs from
photographer Annie Leibovitz’s Pilgrimage project featuring images of
significant historic American sites will be on display from Oct. 25, 2012
through January 20, 2013 at the Gettysburg National Military Park Museum and
Visitor Center.
The exhibition features more than 70 photographs, includes 2 images from
Gettysburg. |

“From the beginning, when I was watching
my children stand mesmerized over Niagara Falls, this project was an exercise
in renewal,” said Leibovitz. “It taught me to see again.”
The pictures, although there are no people in them, are in a certain sense
portraits of subjects that have shaped Leibovitz’s distinctly American view of
her cultural inheritance. Visiting the homes of iconic figures, including
Eleanor Roosevelt, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Louisa May Alcott, Pete Seeger, and
Elvis Presley, as well as places such as Niagara Falls, Gettysburg and the
Yosemite Valley, she let her instincts guide her to related subjects—hence the
title Pilgrimage.
“Gettysburg is such an important place in American history,” said Gettysburg
Foundation President Joanne M. Hanley. “Millions of people make their own
pilgrimage of sorts here every year, to stand on these fields and reflect on
the battle of Gettysburg’s effect on our nation—an effect we are still feeling
today. The Pilgrimage exhibition helps people understand that Gettysburg is
very much relevant in our lives today.”
Annie Leibovitz: Pilgrimage is presented at Gettysburg by the Gettysburg
Foundation; the exhibition is organized by the Smithsonian American Art
Museum. The Bernie Stadiem Endowment Fund provided support for the exhibition,
and the C.F. Foundation of Atlanta supports the museum’s traveling exhibition
program, Treasures to Go. The prints were made by David Adamson Editions in
Washington, D.C.

David Wills House Delivers History and Preservation
The Civil War came to the doorstep of the David Wills home in 1863 as
Confederate soldiers occupied the town and the Wills house was used by wounded
and dying soldiers. Months later President Abraham Lincoln stayed in this home
just before delivering his Gettysburg Address. The David Wills House offers a
self-guided museum tour that includes five galleries, two recreated rooms,
including the Lincoln bedroom, two interactive stations, two films and a gift
shop. Hours on January 21 are 10am to 5pm.
Rupp House History Center Offers Civilian and Soldier Experiences
Please visit us at the Rupp House History Center, 451 Baltimore Street,
Gettysburg, on January 21 from noon-5pm in conjunction with Community
Appreciation Day. Through interactive exhibits that use sight, sound, touch
and even smell, Rupp House visitors are able to immerse themselves in 19th
century culture and learn about the civilians and the soldiers who struggled
here, the John Rupp family and the preservation work that is critical to
understanding the Battle of Gettysburg. For information call (717) 339-2155.
Gettysburg National Military Park is a unit of the National Park Service that
preserves and protects the resources associated with the Battle of Gettysburg
and the Soldiers’ National Cemetery, and provides an understanding of the
events that occurred there within the context of American history. Information

The Gettysburg Foundation is a private, non-profit educational organization
working in partnership with the National Park Service to enhance preservation
and understanding of the heritage and lasting significance of Gettysburg. The
Foundation raised funds for and now operates the Museum and Visitor Center at
Gettysburg National Military Park, which opened in April 2008. In addition to
operating the Museum and Visitor Center, the Foundation has a broad
preservation mission that includes land, monument and artifact preservation
and battlefield rehabilitation—all in support of the National Park Service’s
goals at Gettysburg.

Kara Walker Art Exhibit |
Schmucker Art Gallery presents
an exhibition of works of art by prominent contemporary artist and
MacArthur Foundation Achievement Award recipient Kara Walker. Her suite of
lithographs Harper’s Pictorial History (Annotated) on loan from the
Middlebury College Museum of Art takes Civil War-era imagery as its
subject to question issues of identity, history, sexuality and race,
particularly in relation to stereotypes and historical perceptions of
African Americans. |
Schmucker Art Gallery
300 North Washington Street
Gettysburg, PA
17325
|
717-337-6338 |
Walker enlarges Harper's Pictorial
History of the Civil War, first published in 1866 to reinterpret and disrupt
this celebrated document of American history. "These prints," Walker explains,
"are the landscapes that I imagine exist in the back of my somewhat more
austere wall pieces." Walker’s silhouettes of distorted, fragmented, and
flailing black bodies subvert the original narrative of the Harper’s prints.
Walker's silhouettes incorporate a new understanding of suffering, loss and
horror absent from the nineteenth-century illustrations. Also on exhibit will
be the original publication of Harper’s Pictorial History of the Civil War
(1866), on loan from Special Collections and College Archives, to serve as a
comparative tool for reading the Civil War imagery in its original context.
Kara Walker was born in Stockton, California, in 1969. She received a BFA from
the Atlanta College of Art in 1991, and an MFA from the Rhode Island School of
Design in 1994. The artist is best known for exploring the raw intersection of
race, gender, and sexuality through her iconic, silhouetted figures. New York
Times art critic Holland Cotter has written, “Ms. Walker’s style is magnetic.
Whether in large cutouts, or notebook-size drawings, or in films that are
basically animated versions of both, her draftsmanship is excitingly textured
— old-masterish here, doodlish there — and all of a piece. Brilliant is the
word for it, and the brilliance grows over the survey’s decade-plus span.”
Walker’s work has been exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art, New York; San
Francisco Museum of Modern Art; Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York; and
Whitney Museum of American Art, New York. In 1997, Walker received the John D.
and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation Achievement Award and was the United
States representative to the 2002 Bienal de Săo Paulo. She currently lives in
New York.
The exhibition and related programming will be held in conjunction with the
Central Pennsylvania Consortium Africana Studies Conference. The exhibition is
supported in part by the Gettysburg College Sesquicentennial Committee for the
Commemoration of the American Civil War and EPACC.

Kara Walker Art Exhibit |
Schmucker Art Gallery presents
an exhibition of works of art by prominent contemporary artist and
MacArthur Foundation Achievement Award recipient Kara Walker. Her suite of
lithographs Harper’s Pictorial History (Annotated) on loan from the
Middlebury College Museum of Art takes Civil War-era imagery as its
subject to question issues of identity, history, sexuality and race,
particularly in relation to stereotypes and historical perceptions of
African Americans. |
Schmucker Art Gallery
300 North Washington Street
Gettysburg, PA
17325
|
717-337-6338 |
Walker enlarges Harper's Pictorial
History of the Civil War, first published in 1866 to reinterpret and disrupt
this celebrated document of American history. "These prints," Walker explains,
"are the landscapes that I imagine exist in the back of my somewhat more
austere wall pieces." Walker’s silhouettes of distorted, fragmented, and
flailing black bodies subvert the original narrative of the Harper’s prints.
Walker's silhouettes incorporate a new understanding of suffering, loss and
horror absent from the nineteenth-century illustrations. Also on exhibit will
be the original publication of Harper’s Pictorial History of the Civil War
(1866), on loan from Special Collections and College Archives, to serve as a
comparative tool for reading the Civil War imagery in its original context.
Kara Walker was born in Stockton, California, in 1969. She received a BFA from
the Atlanta College of Art in 1991, and an MFA from the Rhode Island School of
Design in 1994. The artist is best known for exploring the raw intersection of
race, gender, and sexuality through her iconic, silhouetted figures. New York
Times art critic Holland Cotter has written, “Ms. Walker’s style is magnetic.
Whether in large cutouts, or notebook-size drawings, or in films that are
basically animated versions of both, her draftsmanship is excitingly textured
— old-masterish here, doodlish there — and all of a piece. Brilliant is the
word for it, and the brilliance grows over the survey’s decade-plus span.”
Walker’s work has been exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art, New York; San
Francisco Museum of Modern Art; Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York; and
Whitney Museum of American Art, New York. In 1997, Walker received the John D.
and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation Achievement Award and was the United
States representative to the 2002 Bienal de Săo Paulo. She currently lives in
New York.
The exhibition and related programming will be held in conjunction with the
Central Pennsylvania Consortium Africana Studies Conference. The exhibition is
supported in part by the Gettysburg College Sesquicentennial Committee for the
Commemoration of the American Civil War and EPACC.
