Antique fishing gear, vintage photographs, paintings and memorabilia will deal with the evolution of sportfishing from the early years when ocean anglers such as Charles Frederick Holder and Zane Grey helped establish salt-water fishing as a sport, through the Golden Years when anglers discovered new fishing grounds and developed, through trial and error increasingly sophisticated techniques and tackle catching and landing the "big ones".

Woman: A Celebration
Photographs from the Collection of Peter Fetterman
Dozens of immortal photographers – Henri Cartier-Bresson, Elliott Erwitt, Julia Margaret Cameron, and Ruth Orkin among them – have shaped our image of women through unforgettable photographs that have become part of the public consciousness. This exhibition of more than 100 photographs ranges from a rare image of a grinning Greta Garbo to a silent moment shared between a mother and her infant; from jazz singer Sarah Vaughn to an anonymous 19th-century Chinese woman. Woman: A Celebration illuminates the many moods of its subject in a breadth of photographic styles. On view in the Pick/Laudati Galleries of the main museum in Newport Beach.

The results are evocative images of female strength, beauty, and individuality. Although influenced by the legacy of feminism and postmodernism, the conceptual and aesthetic stance of these artist reflects their distinct generational and cultural viewpoints.
