SUMMARY:\'My Soul Aches\': Ukraine\'s Mortal Courage
DESCRIPTION:School of Media & Communication Gallery | Jody Richards Hall\, WKU \nM-W 9:00 am – 9:00 pm | TH – F 9:00 am – 4:00 pm* \n \nThe School of Media & Communications invites you to explore the heart-wrenching reality\, \”\’My Soul Aches\’: Ukraine\’s Mortal Courage\” exhibition of images by Carol Guzy\, at Jody Richards Hall Gallery on the campus of Western Kentucky University. \nStep into a world of raw emotions\, stark honesty\, and the undeniable power of visual storytelling in this recent body of work from four-time Pulitzer Prize-Winning photojournalist Carol Guzy as we unveil a stunning collection of nearly 60 large format printed photographs that capture the essence and reality of the on-going war in Ukraine. Prepare to be moved as you journey through these captivating images allowing you to connect with the people of Ukraine on a deeply personal level and bear witness to the resilience and spirit of the Ukrainian people. Guzy\’s work speaks to the unvarnished truth of conflict\, offering a glimpse into the lives of those affected by the war. Guzy was the 2022 recipient of the Fleischaker/Greene Award for Courageous International Reporting from WKU School of Media. \nWARNING: The content in this exhibition may be difficult for some to view\, however these images were taken to connect us to the experiences of others in the hope we can better understand their suffering.  \n* Open only on days the University is open\, parking is free after 4:30 pm on the Chestnut Street South Lot. \n  \nCarol Guzy: A Lens of Compassion and Courage in a World of Conflict \nFor over four decades\, Carol Guzy has been a humble ambassador in the world of photojournalism. With an unerring eye for capturing the raw\, emotional essence of human stories\, Guzy has earned her place among the most celebrated photojournalists of our time. \n\nBorn with an innate curiosity and a passion for storytelling\, Guzy embarked on her career in the early \’80s. Her unflinching commitment to truth and her remarkable ability to empathize with her subjects have garnered her four Pulitzer Prizes\, one of only two journalists to have achieved this accomplishment. \nGuzy\’s recent work from Ukraine is an exemplar of her unmatched skill in documenting the human experience during times of crisis. Her photographs from the war-torn region are haunting and real\, encapsulating the pain\, resilience\, and hope of the Ukrainian people. Through her lens\, we witness the devastating impact of conflict on families\, the bravery of those defending their homeland\, and the indomitable spirit of a nation striving for peace. \nIn a world often marred by chaos and division\, Carol Guzy\’s work\, from the fall of the Berlin Wall to the Kosovo War to Hurricane Katrina to the ISIS conflicts in the Middle East\, serves as a beacon of truth and understanding. She reminds us that behind every headline and statistic\, there are real people with real stories. Her photographs from Ukraine are not just images; they are windows into the heart and soul of a nation\, a testament to her unwavering commitment to bearing witness to the world\’s most pressing issues. Carol Guzy continues to inspire and educate through her powerful visual storytelling\, leaving an indelible mark on the world of photojournalism. \n

SUMMARY:SLICES: A Look Back At The Way We Were
DESCRIPTION:From the archives of the Louisville Courier-Journal\, this collection of 57 images that span six decades\, document the seemingly mundane to significant events of our collective past. The Courier-Journal staff created a record of history that became immortalized in the power of photography. As time marches forward\, these images freeze a layer of humanity in the click of a shutter revealing to us how much we have changed\, and just perhaps\, how we have not. \nGALLERY HOURS: \nM-W: 9:00 am – 9:00 pm \nTH-F: 9:00 am – 4:00 pm \n  \nThe 57 images on display as well as many more can be seen in a book published by Press Syndication Group and can be purchased here. \n\nReaders of the Courier Journal picked up their newspapers on January 5\, 1896\, and found something they had never seen before. There\, splashed across the front of the third section of the newspapers\, were photographs – not the lithographs they had come to expect in their paper – honest-to-God\, half-tone photos of state-owned buildings around the commonwealth. \nThat was nine months before the New York Times began running photographs in the pages of its Sunday Magazine and years before either newspaper would put photos on their front pages. Before that\, newspapers generally used hand-engraved lithographic prints to illustrate their stories\, but the advent of the half-tone printing process\, for the first time\, began to bring the staid old publications with long columns of gray type to life. It was that page that ushered in a new era for the Courier Journal. \nThe story that accompanied the Courier Journal’s picture package that Sunday morning\, buried at the bottom of the page\, was almost certainly included as nothing more than a vehicle to show off the Courier Journal’s new technology – the process of using tiny dots to reproduce photos – that allowed it to bring stories to its readers like never before. The photos hinted at what the Courier Journal would become\, with its corps of photographers crisscrossing the state to bring the stories of Kentucky back to its readers in a way writers never could It started with static photos of buildings\, nature and mug shots of people that appeared in the third section of the paper – later called the “Half-tone Section” because of its heavy reliance on photos. \nAs the ability to print photographs faster and with better clarity advanced\, so did photography. In years that followed\, cameras went from using glass plates\, to George Eastman’s roll film that first allowed for photography without a tripod\, to finally in 1925\, the invention of the 35mm camera. The newspaper eventually introduced color photographs to its Sunday magazine and then in the early 1990s to the newspaper itself. \nIn the early years\, the newspaper’s photography staff wasn’t much to speak of. When reporter William Burke “Skeets” Miller won the Pulitzer Prize for reporting in 1925 after he crawled into Sand Cave in Southern Kentucky to interview trapped cave explorer Floyd Collins\,he – and not a photographer – was given a camera to take the photos inside the cave. Over the years\, though\, the newspaper developed a dedicated photo staff that served both the morning Courier Journal and its sister publication\, the afternoon Louisville Times. And with the evolution of cameras came the evolution of the Courier Journal’s great team of photographers. By the mid-1980s that staff had grown to more than 30 photographers\, editors and laboratory technicians who were largely based in Louisville but who traveled to all corners of the state and beyond at a moment’s notice to cover everything from political campaigns to mine disasters to floods to life. \nFor more than 30 years\, the staff was led by Billy Davis\, the longtime director of photography who was most known for his aerial photography – shot from a series of six airplanes that the Courier Journal owned between 1953 and the mid-1990s\, according to C. Thomas Hardin\, who succeeded Al Allen in leading the photo staff. \nIt was in 1953 that Davis\, an accomplished pilot who first photographed Louisville from the sky during the 1937 Ohio River flood when he was working for the Chattanooga News\, convinced Courier Journal President Barry Bingham Sr.\, Publisher Mark Ethridge and Vice President Lisle Baker that the photo staff needed an airplane to travel the state and get shots from high above. \n“We could get anywhere in the state in less than an hour and a half” former director of photography Hardin said. “It was our bureau in the sky” \nThrough the 1970s and 1980s\, the Courier Journal photography staff either won or helped win three Pulitzer Prizes for the newspaper. The first came in 1976 when it won the award for feature photography for its coverage of forced busing and the integration of Jefferson County’s public schools. The next came four years later when reporter Joel Brinkley and photographer Jay Mather teamed up to win the Pulitzer Prize for international reporting for their stories and images of the refugee crisis unfolding in Cambodia because of the brutal rule of the Khmer Rouge. \nAnd then in 1989\, the photography staff shared a Pulitzer Prize with the newspaper’s reporting and editing staffs for their coverage of the Carroll County bus crash. The accident\, among the worst in U.S. history\, killed 27 people and injured 34 others when drunken driver Larry Mahoney plowed his pickup truck into an old school bus owned by the Radcliff Assembly of God Church that was returning from a youth group trip to Kings Island amusement Park near Cincinnati. \nThe photographs they and other Courier Journal photographers shot over the years both lift your spirit and break your heart. They tell stories of life and death. They teach us about the famous and the unknown. The extraordinary and the mundane. Many are beautiful in their simplicity\, brilliant in their complexity\, and they’re all\, frankly\, just wonderful to look at. \nA book like this wouldn’t be complete without Stewart Bowman’s scene-setting photos of the Bluegrass region with the horses and barns and fences and all their iconic beauty. Nor would it seem right to publish this work without Davis aerial shot of the North Fork of the Kentucky River enveloping the city of Hazard and a smaller nearby community during the floods of 1963. \nThere are photos of young\, thin\, beautiful Elvis. And there’s an older\, jump-suit-wearing Elvis in his decline. Baryshnikov and Beach Boys. Mick Jagger and Elton John. And James Brown. Bill Monroe. Aretha \nThere is history – like Charles Lindbergh\, his darkened face visible in the cockpit of the Spirit of St. Louis parked on the tarmac at Louisville’s Bowman Field. And presidents from Franklin Roosevelt through Donald J. Trump. \nSome of the photos are shot in a brief window while others show the incredible access granted the photographers and the painstaking hours of sitting\, waiting\, for the perfect shot. The perfect moment. \nSadly\, many earlier photos you won’t see here were destroyed in the 1937 flood. Still many of the older negatives that survived the flood or were shot in the years shortly after are blistering and lost to time. But so many of the photos live on. And they tell stories. Our stories. The stories of our fathers and mothers. And their fathers and mothers. \nWhether it’s a car with its rear end hanging from a chain and a mechanic poised with a steam gun to clean it after a flood\, whether it’s people from a protestant church handling snakes in rural Kentucky or the body of a man who leaped to his death from a building in downtown Louisville\, the photos do the job that words alone can’t do. \nThere’s a soldier mourning over a flag-draped coffin in one photo and a soldier – pint of Seagram’s whisky in hand – laying a big celebratory smooch on a woman in another. \nSome of the most striking photos\, however\, are the ones that simply tell a story of everyday life\, ones that don’t focus on big\, important events or big\, important people. They are the ones that don’t complement a story but tell a story all their own. A master of that was Pam Spaulding\, who began photographing a young lawyer and his family for a newspaper project in 1977 and continues to photograph the family to this day. The images she made of the McGarvey family – including one with the mother lecturing one son and holding another while the family dog is on the exam table in the veterinarian’s office – could be a scene from any of our lives. \nIt was the result of painstaking work and hours upon hours of sitting and waiting\, and it’s a project like none other in the history of photojournalism \n“I used to tell photographers\, ‘Don’t go in and feel like you have to entertain. Go in\, be nice and be boring\,” Hardin said. \nBill Luster’s fabulous shot of grannies – both embarrassed and intrigued – at a Chippendales show at the Toy Tiger Lounge and Hardin’s photo of former Gov. A. B. “Happy” Chandler greeting a voter in the middle of a Western Kentucky street\, are both examples of photographers positioning themselves in the right place and waiting for the right time to press the shutter. Many of the photographers in these pages have gone on to work for publications known for their photographs\, like National Geographic and LIFE Magazine\, while others have spent their entire careers at the Courier Journal. And many of them continue to make incredible images that grace the pages of the Courier Journal today.

SUMMARY:March to March: A Year of Unrest\, Uncertainty and Unknowns
DESCRIPTION:Gallery exhibition features 68 images and three short-form documentary films from 19 different WKUPJ alumni photojournalists who were assigned to capture our unprecedented times.\n  \nThe third month of the year 2020 brought great change to how our nation and our world would go about living daily life. A pandemic not seen on such a scale since 1918 touched every community\, shutting down businesses\, entertainment\, travel and choking our economy and health care system. And like many issues in this divided country\, it became political. Protests erupted over mask mandates\, political ideology and racism. A nation under siege became exhausted. \n  \nSpring turned to summer\, and summer to fall\, then fall to winter. Soon it was March again. A new year for hope\, but still communities struggled to understand and cope with the ripple effects of COVID-19. \n  \nOn the front lines of all the news was a group of dedicated photojournalists\, often risking their own health to tell the important stories. \n  \nMarch to March\, A Year of Unrest\, Uncertainty and Unknowns\, looks at the work of nineteen WKU photojournalism alumni and how their presence allows us to bear witness to history unraveling before our very eyes. Five decades of experience\, generations of graduates come together to tell the complete story of an extraordinary year. \n  \nThe exhibit is free and open to the public in the Jody Richards Hall Gallery and Atrium through November 11. Hours of the gallery are Monday through Wednesday 9:00 am to 9:00 pm and Thursday 9:00 am – 4:00 pm.

SUMMARY:A City Searching for Hope 20th Anniversary Memorial Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The 20th anniversary photo exhibit to feature WKU student and faculty work from September 11\, 2001 terrorist attack\nRidley and Hull Wealth Management Group of Stifel and the WKU School of Media to sponsor the exhibit at the Pushin Building in downtown Bowling Green\, Kentucky on Friday. The opening reception will be from noon to 4:00 pm with opening remarks at 1:00.\n  \nIt was September 11\, 2001. \nWithin a few hours after the World Trade Center towers fell and took a piece of America’s heart with them\, Western Kentucky University photojournalism students packed their cars with photography gear and headed north in search of answers. These students were not sure what they would find in New York\, they just knew they had to be there. By the week’s end\, two faculty had joined them. \nWhat they found was not just a story about smoldering buildings and twisted metal. They found stories about the people who worked in these buildings\, the rescuers trying to save them\, and the family and friends waiting to hear about the fate of their loved ones. By the following week\, the WKU team was back at school with thousands of photographs and one goal: to share their stories with as many people as they could. \nTwenty years later their images still resonate with us\, even haunt us. We are reminded of the profound emotional toll September 11\, 2001 had on our country. The images represent despair\, but also hope and resilience. \nOn September 10\, 2021\, Ridley and Hull Wealth Management Group of Stifel\, and The WKU School of Media will host an open house at the Pushin Building at 400 East Main Street\, Suite 100 in Bowling Green\, Kentucky\, from 12 to 4 p.m. Remarks will be at 1 p.m. The exhibit of 28 images will be open to the public from 10-4 p.m. on weekdays through the month of September. \nProfessor James Kenney\, coordinator of the Photojournalism program at WKU\, was one of the teachers who joined his students in New York in the aftermath of September 11. He expressed mixed emotions about his experience there and in seeing these images exhibited again 20 years later. \n“These images bring back unsettling memories of the pain\, suffering\, and uncertainty borne out of this terrible day. But they also represent the determination of my students to do their part in providing a visual reminder so that a nation would not forget\, and perhaps in some meaningful way contribute to its healing.” \nFor more information about the event or exhibit contact: \nTim Broekema\, Professor of Photojournalism \nWKU \n270-745-3005 \nOr \nBen Ridley \n270-792-7955
