September 25 The Revenge of Plastic

We have many memes from film. An older one is "plastics" from the film The Graduate. And plastics are a great in many ways creation of chemistry. They can be tough, light, durable, and are inexpensive. That's why we have plastic cameras. And they have plastic lenses, which have their charming imperfections. They record an image on analog film, with a plastic substrate, the invention by George Eastman that democratized photography. The Plastics 2 art show captures images from from plastic cameras. The last show, Plastics 1, was excellent. The artists this year are Jason Carlisle, Rebecca Carlisle, Lindsey Marla Lynch, Justin 'Scrappers' Morrison, Anna Korte, Jason Quigley, Ann McGarry, Steve Mathews, Peter Carlson and more.
