“Mind Over Matter”: The Photography of Arno Minkkinen — Artist lecture 5 p.m. Friday Oct. 6. Minkkinen, a Finnish-American photographer, was born in Helsinki and emigrated to the U.S. in 1951. Minkkinen earned an MFA in Photography from the Rhode Island School of Design, studying along the likes of Aaron Siskind and Harry Callahan. Minkkinen’s storied career in photography includes solo and group exhibitions in galleries and museums from around the world, a small library of publications including full length photo books, critical essays, fiction, and even screenplays, teaching positions, residencies, speaking engagements, and a host of photography awards. To say he is prolific would be an understatement. This exhibition incorporates some of Minkkinen’s images from the 1970’s and 1980’s, contemporary and recent work, image murals, and, in a rare move for Minkkinen, selections of his color photography.
