Searching for the Seventies: The DOCUMERICA Photography Exhibition
March, Brick City Building 3
Searching for the Seventies: The DOCUMERICA Photography Project will be on exhibit at Brick City Gallery March 4-April 19, 2016.
Brick City Gallery is located at 215 West Mill Street, Springfield. Gallery hours are M-F 11am-6pm, and Saturdays Noon-5pm
Exhibit will be open during Springfield First Friday Art Walk February 5, until 10pm. Galleries are closed national and university holidays. Closed Spring Break March 5-13.
“In 1971, the newly established U.S. Environmental Protection Agency launched the DOCUMERICA Photography Project with the goal of documenting environmental troubles and triumphs across the country. Gifford Hampshire, the Project’s Director, envisioned a broad scope. Inspired by the Farm Security Administration’s photography project of the 1930s and 40s, he encouraged his photographers to capture “the human connection” to the environment, from small towns in coal country to urban streetscapes. “Where you see people,” he told them, “there’s an environmental element to which they are connected.”
About 70 photographers, including Flip Schulke, John Corn, Danny Lyon, John H. White, and Lyntha Scott Eiler completed 115 separate assignments between 1972 and 1977. What emerged was a moving and textured portrait of America. Capturing a rapidly changing society with surprising resonances to the present, Searching for the Seventies: The DOCUMERICA Photography Project presents a sampling of images culled from a trove of thousands.
The exhibition’s three sections are named after popular songs of the time. “Ball of Confusion” documents the tumultuous environmental, political, and social reality of the 1970s. The energy crises, slow economic growth, and high unemployment were themes pursued by many of the photographers. They brought issues such as the future of cities, gender equality, abortion, and gay rights into crisp focus.
“Everybody Is a Star” showcases vibrant and diverse examples of self-expression – bell-bottoms, bare midriffs, mini dresses, and bright colors – all were in stark contrast to the buttoned-up fashions and accompanying societal norms of the 1950s and early 60s. The ethos of the 1970s was “do your own thing.” Some of the DOCUMERICA photographers were drawn to subjects, which emphasized growing appreciation of ethnic and cultural diversity.
The third section, “Pave Paradise,” illustrates the fragmented landscape of America in the 1970s. Much as today, many Americans had romanticized notions of an idyllic life in small-town America. But small-town reality was often one of poverty, pollution, and quickly dwindling populations. The photographers also exposed the stark differences between sprawling suburbs and crumbling inner cities of the 1970s. They trained their cameras on the great vistas and natural beauty of the American landscape, capturing the threat of development and environmental damage done in the name of progress.
Searching for the Seventies: The DOCUMERICA Photography Project is a collaboration between SITES and the National Archives and Records Administration which now holds the original DOCUMERICA photographic materials and records. The archival records and some 22,000 slides, in addition to negatives, prints, and microfiche, are stored in the stacks of the National Archives in College Park, MD. You can browse through almost 16,000 of the DOCUMERICA images on the Archives’ website and Flickr.”

MUSICAL – Hair
April 7, 8, 9, 10, 7:30 – 10:00 Craig Coger Hall Theatre
Claude and his friends belong to a tribe of young political activists and free spirits living in New York City in the late 1960s. When not engaged in anti-war protests and be-ins, the group explores free love and consciousness-expanding drugs. In the midst of all the “beads, flowers, freedom and happiness,” Claude is summoned by the local draft board for military service in Vietnam. Ultimately, he must decide whether to submit to the expectations of his conservative parents and society — thus sacrificing his pacifist values and possibly his life — or burn his draft card in unity with the tribe. Hair captures the hippie ethos of the era and reflects the kaleidoscope of social change movements: civil rights, peace, black power, free speech, women’s liberation, gay rights, the sexual revolution, environmentalism, New Age spirituality and human potential. Its many notable songs include “Aquarius,” “Good Morning, Starshine,” “Easy to Be Hard,” “Where Do I Go?” and, of course, “Hair”!

Public Affairs Conference–Our Kids: The American Dream in Crisis
April 8, 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM, Hammons Hall for the Performing Arts
PLENARY SESSION
It’s the American dream: get a good education, work hard, buy a house, and achieve prosperity and success. This is the America we believe in—a nation of opportunity, constrained only by ability and effort. But during the last 25 years, we have seen a disturbing “opportunity gap” emerge. Americans have always believed in equality of opportunity, the idea that all kids, regardless of their family background, should have a decent chance to improve their lot in life. Robert Putnam, author of Bowling Alone, will address this central tenet of the American dream that seems no longer true or at the least, much less true than it was.
Professor of Public Policy, Harvard University

New York Gilbert & Sullivan Player THE PIRATES OF PENZANCE
April 12, 7:30 – 9:30 PM, Hammons Hall
Here’s your chance to get carried away by Pirates! Join the band of swashbuckling buccaneers, bumbling British bobbies, frolicsome Victorian maidens, and the delightfully dotty “model of a modern Major-General” for a rollicking romp over the rocky coast of Cornwall in this exuberant musical theatre masterpiece.
The plot of Pirates centers on the dilemma of young Frederic who, as a child, was mistakenly apprenticed to the pirates until his twenty-first birthday. Since he was born in a leap year on February 29, he is honor bound to remain a pirate until the distant date of 1940 – despite his moral objection to piracy. Helping Frederic to deal with this unusual predicament are the brash Pirate King, Ruth (the pirate maid-of-all-work), romantic Mabel, and the delightfully stuffy Major-General Stanley.
Introduction to the Performance at 6:45 p.m.

Mathematics Colloquium: Inverse Wave Scattering Problems and Transmission Eigenvalues
April 13, 3:00 – 4:00, Cheek Hall Room 301
In an inverse scattering problem, we attempt to reconstruct information about
unknown objects based on how waves (e.g., acoustic or electromagnetic) scatter off of
them. One approach to solving this problem, the linear sampling method, has proven
to be a fast and reliable technique for reconstructing an obstacle’s shape and location.
The success of the linear sampling method depends on the behavior of solutions to a
non-self-adjoint eigenvalue problem called the transmission eigenvalue problem. In this
talk, we discuss this relationship and give new results on the existence and behavior of
solutions to the transmission eigenvalue problem. These results make use of the theory
of complex analysis and the theory of elliptic partial differential equations.
