REVIEWS937: Dave Chappelle's Juke Joint

(Yellow Springs, OH) - All I can say is it's nice to have an international, comedic superstar living in the Dayton area. Dave Chappelle lives around here, too! (ba dump bump) Two nights of Dave Chappelle's Juke Joint brought even more stars to a working farm in the small village of Yellow Springs, OH.

However, the additional areas I was able to tour with my guide and details provided by some of the more friendly, informative gua...

( Dayton, OH ) - You may not know the name Yousuf Karsh but you've probably have seen at least one of his images and will be extremely familiar with many of the icons and idols featured in his portraits. YOUSUF KARSH: AMERICAN PORTRAITS opened June 23rd at The Dayton Art Institute and gives you an opportunity to visit with these beautiful photographs and learn about this brilliant photographer who grew up in the midst of the Armenian genocide. This traveling exhibit was organized by the Smithsonian's National Portrait Gallery and features a companion exhibit of photography from the art institute's collection by Daytonian, Jane Reece (1868–1961) that coincides with her 150th birthday. Exclusively in black and white, Yousuf's portraiture style comes through in each of these 20th century photographs, showing his impeccable use of light and shadow and his well-chosen backgrounds and poses. Each photograph in the exhibit feels alive and tells a story about its ...
