15. RENEW_221202_086.JPG: Robert Stackhouse Ghost Dance, 1974 Ghost Dance – a nearly five-foot-tall, semicircular, vertical structure made of consecutive slats of recycled, industrial-grade wood – marks the focal point of Renewal. On the adjacent wall, a display of Stackhouse’s watercolor renderings of the sculpture and detailed instructions for its original construction in 1974 accompany the structure. Stackhouse first unveiled Ghost Dance nearly 40 years ago, drawing inspiration from the 19th-century Native American movement�among the Nevada Northern Paiute to restore ownership of their land and way of life. Stackhouse and his wife, Carol Mickett, who are artistic collaborators, unveiled the opening of their exhibit with a reception and a lecture last week titled “Where we’ve been, where we are, where we’re going.” Babette Pendleton, Corcoran’s exhibition and programming associate, said the slogan encapsulates the exhibition, which centers around the restoration of the work of art. The sculpture explores themes of renewal, rebirth and sustainability through its use of recycled materials and now through its rebirth as part of a new exhibition. The spiritual movement of Ghost Dance emerged after European settlers brought a period of devastating disease to the Paiute people in Nevada�who wished to cleanse their land of the European settlers and sustain its natural beauty. Pendleton said after sitting in the gallery’s storage for over a decade, Ghost Dance was in need of restoration. Visible disrepair on the wood and metal screws left Stackhouse and Mickett to decide between modernizing the construction or maintaining its original appearance, Stackhouse said.

2022 photos: This year included major setbacks -- including Putin's invasion of Ukraine and the Supreme Court imposing the evangelical version of sharia law -- but also some steps forward like the results of the midterms. This website had its 20th anniversary in August, 2022. Equipment this year: I continued to use my Fuji XS-1 cameras but, depending on the event, I also used a Nikon D7000. Trips this year: (February) a visit to see Dad and Dixie in Asheville, NC with some other members of my family, (July) a trip out west for the return of San Diego Comic-Con, and (October) a long weekend in New York to cover New York Comic-Con. Number of photos taken this year: about 386,000, up 2020 and 2021 levels but still way below pre-pandemic levels.
