How We Grow is a film about ambitious young farmers building community around locally grown food. The average age of a farmer in the U.S. is 58-years-old. Our farmers are approaching retirement and it is essential that the next generation of farmers have community systems that support them so they may take on farming as a career.

The First Nudes

The First Nudes

Men were the first nudes in Turkish painting. The majority of these paintings were academic studies executed in oil paint; they were part of the education of artists that had finally attained the opportunity to work from the live model. The gender of the models constituted an obstacle in the way of characterizing these paintings as ‘nudes’.

The man is depicted in three-quarters view, turning straight to the viewers with a penetrating glance. The background is grey, while the clothes, the hair, and cap are black.
