Adam Peiperl collection, 2000-2010.

This collection consists of examples of Adam Peiperl photomontages, images, CDs, and a DVD titled "Sheet Sculptures in Polarized Light," consisting of video renditions of his sculptures rotating and displaying iridescent colors of the spectrum. There is also one poster for the Senior Thesis Dance Concert at George Washington University on March 28, 2001. The poster design and photography were done by Adam Peiperl. He described these works as the choreography of Maida Withers in snapshots. The images in box three were taken by Peiperl of performances of choreographic thesis work "The Trials of Terpsichore," by GW graduating senior Courtney Coughlin. The background of these images are digital compositions by Peiperl. For many of the images found throughout the collection the titles were taken from the file title supplied by Peiperl. At times the title is clearly missing data and in those cases the data has been inserted in brackets.
