The history of photography is Beaumont Newhall! Throughout most of the 20th century he has seen a central figure in the movement to have photography recognized as an art form. It might also be said that he created the "history of photography" as a distinct and respected field of study. As a founder and father of the history of photography, photographer, curator, art historian, writer, scholar, teacher and administrator it seems as if there has been more than one Beaumont Newhall. Beginning in 1938 at the Museum of Modern Art, he created the first retrospective exhibition of the 100-year-old art of photography. This film highlights some of Beaumont's experiences of being a lifelong friend, mentor and confident of many photographers now in the annals of history.
Time: 7:48

Chip Hooper photographing at Timber Cove on the Sonoma Coast
Gallery artist Chip Hooper visited the North Coast this week. Chip could be found photographing along the beautiful Sonoma and Mendocino Coast at various times of the day. He was easy to spot. He was the tall guy with the large 8"x10" view camera under the black cloth. Stay tuned for future photographs. In the meantime, take a look at some of his earlier images made on the California Coast and New Zealand.
