Feb. 15- May 12
IRINA ROZOVSKY: A Perpetual Hold
This exhibition is comprised of two sections. In This Russia, Irina Rozovsky returns to her childhood home of Russia to describe a place both real and imagined by years of absence and the disorientation of being a stranger in a familiar land. These images look for what has been left behind and disconnected—This Russia—its crumbling buildings, searching faces—its fairytale drenched in redeeming, yellow light, nostalgia tinged with harsh reality. The second series, One to Nothing, was made in Israel, a place of historic conflict where it is not always clear who is the victor and the victim. It describes a fight where the difference between winning and losing is an existential battle: a confrontation between the individual and the abyss. It is a Gordian knot, becoming ever more tightly coiled as you try to unravel it.
Closed Mondays; OPEN – Tues, Thurs, Fri: 11 a.m. - 5 p.m. Wed: 11 a.m. - 7 p.m. Weekends: 1 - 5 p.m.
Daytona Beach Campus, Hosseini Center (#1200), SMP

Feb. 15- May 12
DANA POPA: not Natasha
Traveling from London to her birthplace in Moldova, across the Black Sea to Istanbul and back again, Dana Popa recorded the plight of sex-trafficked women from Eastern Europe. Sold by friends, family or even their husbands for sometimes just a few hundred dollars, these women and girls live a tawdry and dangerous life on the fringes and in the shadows of our culture. These are powerful photographs of an important subject. “Natasha is a nickname given to prostitutes with Eastern European looks. Sex-trafficked girls hate it.” Closed Mondays; OPEN – Tues, Thurs, Fri: 11 a.m. - 5 p.m. Wed: 11 a.m. - 7 p.m. Weekends: 1 - 5 p.m.
Daytona Beach Campus, Hosseini Center (#1200), SMP

Feb. 15- May 12
NATAN DVIR: Eighteen
In this series, Natan Dvir’s subjects are 18-year-old Arabs living in Israel. Turning 18 is a critical turning point in their young lives: they have finished school, become legal adults, and achieved the right to vote. Yet unlike their Jewish peers, most do not enter military service. They are members of a minority group which comprises more than one-fifth of the nation’s population. As a photographer born and raised in Israel, Dvir undertook this project to better understand the experience of Arabs coming of age in a country defined by the majority’s religion. Closed Mondays; OPEN – Tues, Thurs, Fri: 11 a.m. - 5 p.m. Wed: 11 a.m. - 7 p.m. Weekends: 1 - 5 p.m.
