Tomorrow the Getty will be hosting Woman Twirling: A Conversation with Jo Ann Callis, Gay Block, and Catherine Opie to coincide with Callis's current show there. Don't miss this write-up on Callis over at the LA Times, which ends with:
Though she was a top photographer through the mid-’90s, her response to the digital juggernaut was to take up painting and printmaking. “As a career move, this is ridiculous,” says Callis, whose work is shown at Craig Krull Gallery in Santa Monica. “But there is no point in making art unless you do what you want to do.”

This is a perfect information because I know she was so talented she deserved to be in the top of mid-’90s because of her perfect work, I' so identify with this article m10m
Yeah, her work's really grown on me. She did her own thing, ignoring trends, which I respect. History will treat her kindly, I think.
