Quiet Eccentricities
The Vernacular SeenDrawing upon aspects of photography, sculpture, assemblage and text, Lewis Koch calls attention to the often unremarked upon elements of everyday life. Over the past fifty years, he has presented installations in garages, on kiosks and billboards, as well as in museums and galleries, in solo exhibitions internationally. His work is held in permanent collections which include the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Art Institute of Chicago, Smithsonian Museum of American Art, and National Gallery of Art (both DC), Maison Européenne de la Photographie (Paris), Staatsgalerie Stuttgart, Whitney Museum of American Art (NY), San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and Museum of Fine Arts (Houston). Jill Sterrett is Director of Collections at the Wisconsin Historical Society. Before her tenure in Wisconsin, she held leadership positions at the Smart Museum of Art (Chicago), and for 28 years at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. There, she led the conservation department during its formative years, establishing SFMOMA as a pioneer in the field of time-based media conservation. Lisa Stone is an independent curator/collaborator, preservation consultant, and retired (2020) curator of the Roger Brown Study Collection, and Senior Lecturer in the Department of Art History, Theory, and Criticism, both at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC). She works, seasonally, in her studios––indoors and out––in rural Wisconsin.

Soviet Scientific Institutes
Eric Lusito is a French photographer who has been travelling in the former Soviet bloc since the 2000s. In 2021, while in Kharkiv, Ukraine, he met in a scientist who agreed to show him his laboratory. The facility reminded him of the comic books of his childhood, inspiring him to embark on a new project, exploring the under-documented world of science. Paul Josephson, professor emeritus in history, Colby College, has studied big science and technology across the globe for over four decades. In former Soviet spaces he has stepped into research institutes from the Kola Peninsula and the Arctic Circle to the Ural Mountains and Siberia, and in the socialist world from Ukraine to Bulgaria, Hungary, the Czech Republic and the Baltic states. Paul is the author of sixteen books on global science in the twentieth century. Damon Murray and Stephen Sorrell have been publishing critically acclaimed books on Soviet culture since 2004 with their Russian Criminal Tattoo Encyclopaedia. More recent titles include Ukrainian Modernism, Spomenik Monument Database and Soviet Bus Stops.
