To capture the essence of RISD, Starr Ockenga used a 4x5 camera and a still-life format to create visual tapestries of each department and discipline. For three days in January 1986, Starr and her stylist Eileen Doolittle, wan- dered in and out of students work areas, interviewed students and col- lected objects that reflected their various specialties. When Starr could not find specific objects, she com- missioned students to create them. In February, she returned and added her own elements to make up the final compositions. These were placed on a frame and shot on a one-to-one scale. Starr Ockenga’s work for Portfolio1986 can be summarized by the statement found in her introduction. ‘These pictures, as a whole, are my homage to RISD’s parts.’ Fine Arts: Textile Design, Jewelry and Light Metals, 17: Terry Dove, Kari Kempers, Joan Parcher, Rosanne Sasso, Maria Tulakos.

As someone who Is interested in se- quences and letterforms, Duane Mic- hals’ concept of RISD plays off both elements at one time. Duane asked for a number of students who would be photographed in dif- ferent RISD locations. These locations were picked for their generic qualities. They could be classrooms, stairways, hallways, parking lots, almost any- where on the RISD campus. In December of 1985, Duane Michals posed his subjects in different letter- forms. Using a 35mm camera, he took dozens of different shots of each let- terform, varying the textures, light and locations before making the final: selections for this Portfolio. As is appropiate for a project of this nature, Duane Michals’ photographs form the letters and numbers that make up ‘RISD 1986 ’.
