Three spring and summer feature portraiture by Robert Wilson, Suda House and Julia Margaret Cameron
Deborah Klochko remembers a time, not so long ago, when she would have to walk to the neighborhood drugstore to get her film developed. The executive director and chief curator at the Museum of Photographic Arts says photography has always been her passion.
That nonprofit was called the Center for Photographic Arts. Klochko goes on to explain that the organization hosted a variety of photographic exhibitions in a number of locations including Grossmont College. Eventually, the organization transitioned from what Klochko describes as a “museum without walls” to moving into Balboa Park in 1983. And while she adds that it’s a history that isn’t particularly well-documented in writing, the photographic proof is abundant.
“It just made a big difference in terms of the presence that the organization brought to Balboa Park,” Klochko says. “Lady Gaga: Mademoiselle Caroline Riviere,” a 2013 high-definition video by Robert Wilson, featured in “Video Portraits: Robert Wilson,” on exhibit through Sept. 24 at the Museum of Photographic Arts in Balboa Park.
“The Mountain Nymph Sweet Liberty,” an 1866 portrait by British photographer Julia Margaret Cameron featured in “Arresting Beauty: Julia Margaret Cameron,” a touring exhibit of portraits from London’s Victoria and Albert Museum, on display April 29-Sept. 3 at the Museum of Photographic Arts in Balboa Park.
