Not A Cornfield’s in-house shooters are in the process of wading through the thousands of images they’ve captured since the onset of the art action. On Friday, February 3rd, they’ll be pinning-up and studying how the digital photos look once printed. Stop by and watch them work, and feel free to offer up your own critiques of which images best express the project’s quartet of color phases – brown, green, gold, and blue plus the current machine harvest.
ABOUT THE PHOTOGRAPHERS
James Goodnight, Steve Rowell, and Jaime Lopez are Not A Cornfield team members. To varying degrees, and with varying equipment, they have been photographing the project since it began; their work has since appeared on the Notacornfield website, as well as in major newspapers, magazines, websites, institutions, and elsewhere.
ABOUT NOT A CORNFIELD SALONS
Not A Cornfield Salons that bring people together in order to share, engage, energize, and enhance the organic nexus that is this project. Please note that this is the final salon of 2005. The series will reopen in mid-January 2006.
ABOUT THE NOT A CORNFIELD PROJECT
Growing in the historic center of Los Angeles, the Not Cornfield project transforms an industrial brownfield site into a cornfield for one agricultural cycle. Now the Los Angeles Historic State Park, the site popularly known as 'The Cornfield' had remained derelict for more than a decade. The project serves as a potent metaphor that provides a focus for reflection and action in a city unclear about the location of its energetic and historic center.
