Natures Second Course - France Scully Osterman
Opening Reception: First Friday October 3, 6-10pm
Closing Reception: Third Friday November 21, 6-10pm

right, France Scully Osterman, Tamara, 8x10,waxed salt print from collodion negativeImage 1 of 15

France Scully Osterman is one of the leading artists working in wet-plate collodion, salted paper and albumen printing today. She resides in Rochester, NY and is a guest scholar at the George Eastman House. France teaches private tutorials and workshops in the Scully & Osterman 19th century skylight studio. She has given lectures and workshops throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico, Japan and Europe. Her “Sleep” series has been reviewed several publications, Art in America, Paris Photo, Village Voice.

“Sleep Series” is a series of intimate portraits taken in her studio of friends, acquaintances and loved ones as they sleep. Composed carefully France Scully Osterman is making everything from scratch. The negative is made just before exposure in the camera, then immediately developed. Sometimes they may turn over in the middle of an exposure, which, in this case, will take 45 seconds to several minutes. She will keep making negatives as long as they sleep. All prints from the Sleep series collection are 8 x10 waxed salt prints from collodion negatives.

“Bed Series” is another series in continuation of sleep, this series focuses on the bed - removing the subject, now the viewer is invited to become the "sleeper".

These images are treated as landscapes and hung like Japanese scrolls without frames. Each panel is 5 ft high X 2 ft wide pigment print on Japanese rice paper from collodion negatives.

Her work is in the collections of The Museum of Fine Art in Houston, George Eastman House International Museum of Photography, Harry Ransom Center at the University of Texas, Museum of Western Virginia in Roanoke Virginia, Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art at Cornell University in Ithaca New York as well as in private collections.

France Scully Osterman will be giving a lecture titled "Serendipity and Exquisite Manipulation" France will be talking about her work and how historic and contemporary artists use process artifacts as a tool for expression. The Lecture will be held in the Center for Creative Photography Auditorium (CCP) on the University of Arizona campus located in Tucson, Arizona on Wednesday 5:30 pm October 1, 2008.
