The Center of Photography at Woodstock have released their Photography Quarterly #98 Magazine, which features portfolios by previous artists-in-residence, many who have appeared on Nymphoto!

Our very own Rona Chang is also featured in the quarterly, along with Hee Jin Kang, Juliana Beasley, Justine Reyes, Kanako Sasaki, Jennifer Williams, and Stacy Arezou Mehrfar to name a few.

There's also a great selection of essays and interviews.

Wendy Ewald interviewed by Emily Glass
There is perhaps no other practicing artist in photography that converges the margins between artist and subject more than Wendy Ewald. Emily Glass interviews this ground-breaking image-maker at her upstate New York home about her process and her ongoing career.

Notes from the Blogosphere by Liz Unterman
Unterman investigates this exciting new platform where ideas are being exchanged, voices are being discovered and the roles of artist, curator, and tastemaker are being converged and asks five leading bloggers about what Blogs they turn to in order to know where photography is at.

Anthology of Trends
work by Tarrah Krajnak & Wilka Roig

The photographs created by the collaborative team of artists Tarrah Krajnak and Wilka Roig investigate trends in the photographic representation of the female. Tarrah and Wilka place themselves in their own images as they perform and catalog representations of the female throughout decades and eras in photography, creating an archive of the trends, stereotypes, and classifications.

Reception: Saturday January 24., 2009 from 5-7pm.
An Artist Talk with Tarrah & Wilka will begin at 6pm

On view: April 11 - May 24, 2009.
