Obscure catalogues

[edit]

Two among the solo exhibitions, as currently described:

  • 1986 Espace, Union des Banques a Paris, Paris, "Rosalind Solomon Photographies," Ghislaines Richard-Vitton, catalogue text by Ben Lifson.
  • 1992 Instituto de Estudios americanos, Badalona and Bilbao Cultural Center, Bilbao, Spain, "Rosalind Solomon: Disconnections," catalogue text by Jeff Rosenheim.

Worldcat has no mention of the former catalogue. Anyone know anything about it?

Worldcat says (OCLC 913348705) of the latter:

1 folded sheet ([6] pages) : illustrations, portraits ; 21 cm

I suggest that this is so minor that we can and perhaps should ignore it. Comments? -- Hoary (talk) 22:20, 19 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

1 folded sheet...! Yes please do. -Lopifalko (talk) 08:18, 20 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion request for sample photo

[edit]

I have, sadly, nominated the photograph for deletion from Commons: Deletion_requests/File:Ancash,_Peru,_1981.jpg. I'd be delighted if convincing reasons were presented there not to delete, whereupon I'd reverse myself. (NB please present them there, not here.) -- Hoary (talk) 22:56, 19 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 20 July 2016

[edit]
The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: Moved. No real opposition, and seems reasonable.  — Amakuru (talk) 10:38, 29 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]


Rosalind Solomon → Rosalind Fox Solomon – The article is currently titled "Rosalind Solomon". The photographer started as Rosalind Fox and did most of her work as Rosalind Solomon but in recent years seems to have been consistent in naming herself Rosalind Fox Solomon. (See for example her website.). This is a procedural nomination, I have no opinion. The text in green is by User:Hoary and I copied it from their original proposal. The RM template usually appends the name of the person who fills it in, which in this case was me.

EdJohnston changed what had been a question about which course of action to take (with a tentative recommendation) into a request to take one course of action. No complaints from me, because making this a "requested move" triggers one or more alerts elsewhere: a plus. -- Hoary (talk) 22:38, 20 July 2016 (UTC) .... deleted half of my comment, as EdJohnston's clarification has made it unnecessary (and confusing). -- Hoary (talk) 05:04, 21 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The article is currently titled "Rosalind Solomon". The photographer started as Rosalind Fox and did most of her work as Rosalind Solomon but in recent years seems to have been consistent in naming herself Rosalind Fox Solomon. (See for example her website.)

Rosalind Fox Solomon currently isn't even a redirect. At the least, it should redirect to Rosalind Solomon. But I think that this would be the wrong way around. Better to move this article to Rosalind Fox Solomon, leaving a redirect.

However, I'm not passionately in favor of the change. "Rosalind Solomon" is shorter and for all I know may remain better used. If it is, we should keep it. (See Wikipedia:Naming conventions (people) for the criteria to use when deciding which title to use.)

Anyway, one title should redirect to the other. But which way around? Comments welcome. -- Hoary (talk) 00:30, 20 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

As her most recent publications and her web site use Rosalind Fox Solomon, I say go with that lead and rename. -Lopifalko (talk) 09:10, 20 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Permanent collections, or perhaps not, or not worth bothering with

[edit]

Some collections are listed in the back of El Perú y Otros Lugares or mentioned otherwise, but are currently a mystery.

Other collections verifiably possess prints -- but it seems only in the single figures. A photographer (or her representative) may like to list as many of these collections as possible, and for understandable reasons; but I suggest that listing them in our article, however modestly, does very little to enlighten the reader. And therefore I am removing them from the article. (It was me who put them there.) NB there may be some misunderstanding, and it's entirely possible that a collection of three could grow to a collection of twenty-three. And this is why I list them here.

North America

[edit]
  • New Orleans Museum of Art
    • (Listed in the back of El Perú y Otros Lugares.) NOMA's website does have a search facility ... but this doesn't show anything for RS
  • Sheldon Memorial Art Gallery, Lincoln, Nebraska
    • (Listed in the back of El Perú y Otros Lugares.) Subsequently renamed Sheldon Museum of Art, whose website has no search facility.

South America

[edit]

Europe

[edit]
  • Museum voor Volkenkunde, Rotterdam.
    • (Listed in the back of El Perú y Otros Lugares.) Subsequently incorporated within Wereldmuseum Rotterdam, whose collections don't seem to be searchable.

Asia

[edit]
  • "Israel Museum, Tel Aviv"
    • (So listed in the back of El Perú y Otros Lugares.) But this museum is and has always been in Jerusalem, and its website shows nothing for RS. Meanwhile, the Eretz Israel Museum is in Tel Aviv; there doesn't seem to be a way to search through its collection.

More sources on RFS

[edit]

Here are some that for one reason or another I don't want to deal with yet. Perhaps I'll never get around to employing them for the article. Other editors are most welcome to do so.

Earth Rites publication detail

[edit]

I haven't seen the catalogue Earth Rites: Photographs from inside the Third World, said to be a twelve-page exhibition catalogue. Amazon and Abebooks (which I believe is run by Amazon) say it's ISBN 9998087996. But an ISBN seems unlikely for such a slight publication; and the catalogue record OCLC 864687499 doesn't mention any ISBN. So I wonder. Somebody with access to a copy of this might take a look at it. -- Hoary (talk) 23:04, 17 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
