Medencevic Shows Stills
Suki Medencevic, ASC recently
unveiled a photo exhibit - titled
"Windows to the World, Windows to the
Soul" - at the Perfect Exposure Gallery in
Los Angeles. Sponsored by Alternative
Rentals Los Angeles, the exhibit represented
Medencevic's most recent works in documentary and portrait photography.
ASC Houses Photo Exhibit
The Society recently held its second
ASC Photo Gallery exhibit at the Clubhouse
in Hollywood. The nine participating
photographers were ASC members
Antonio Calvache, Richard Crudo,
Frederick Elmes, Denis Lenoir, Charlie
Lieberman, Karl Walter Lindenlaub,
Suki Medencevic, Steven B. Poster and
Robert Primes. The representative 45
images - five from each contributor -
were curated by Paris Chong, manager of
the Leica Gallery Los Angeles. Lieberman,
who coordinated the previous photo
gallery, personally printed all the photos on
American Cinematographer

display, working closely with his fellow
photographers to ensure their work looked
perfect on opening night.
"Originally, we thought our first
show's theme was 'portraits' and this second
one would be 'landscapes,' but I like to think
of them as 'faces' and 'places,'" says Lieberman. "These categories aren't so mutually
exclusive or restrictive; often we see subjects
in their environment, so it may not technically be a pure portrait image. Conversely,
people are often key components to a landscape and help define the space."
Prints and box sets are available for
purchase at the Clubhouse or online.
Lachman Offers Insights
Ed Lachman, ASC was among the
eight tutors for the IDFAcademy Summer
School in Amsterdam. Alongside fellow
industry luminaries, Lachman gave guidance
to a select group of up-and-coming international filmmaking talents.
In addition, Lachman was recently a
guest at the seventh edition of Terre Di
Cinema - International Cinematographers
Days, a film festival held in Catania, on the
east coast of Sicily. The festival included
screenings of the feature films Far From
Heaven (AC Dec. '02) and Carol (AC Nov.
'15), both of which Lachman shot for director Todd Haynes.
