Show rr' 4E Tbe Salt Lake Tribune Youth in Custody exhibit shows the view from inside Sunday, July 15, 1964 4 By John Gutman Tribune Staff Writer Three young men, residents of the Decker Lake Youth Correction Center in West Valley City, roamed the halls with cameras in hand the past school year. Their objective was to capture on film what life is like in the juvemle offenders facility. The result of that study is on display at the Salt Lake Art Center through Aug. 15. Decker Lake Youth in Custody is a fascinating look at the different ways individuals react to incarceration. The three John Knuth, Wayne were Gauger and Royal Roberts schooled in photography technique and darkroom skills by John at the Schaefer, Art Center, and director of the Childrens Photographic Workshop. The program was set up and partially funded by the Granite School District under the direction of Gayle Richards. Assisting in its supervision was Randy Sorensen, psychologist at Decker Lake, with the cooperation of the Decker Lake staff, headed by Kit Ennis. I was director of the Polaroid Childrens Photo Workshop, so I had worked with young people before, said Schaefer. Granite School District gave us some money to buy dr k room equipment, and Polaroid also provided us with some film and equipment. I wanted to teach them a skill in an intensified experience and also to give them some responsibility, he said. There are approximately 30 residents of the Decker Lake facility, which opened last autumn. All of them were given the opportunity to participate in the instruction course. Some had scheduling problems, and others were not serious about the subject. The three who participated spent about five hours a week, begin- - mng in the fall, in instruction with Schaefer. They were taught concepts in composition, camera technique, mounting and how to develop pictures. They also were allowed to use the darkroom at other times during the week. My purpose was to teach photography as an art, rather than as a vocation. So they really had to learn it and it took a lot of effort and time. Most people dont have the time to learn photography. It usually takes years to teach it. But the intensity of the experience helped them develop many of the basic skills needed to be a photographer. They were enthusiastic and they worked at it, Schaefer said. The teaching and learning process was enhanced by the use of an instant film made by Polaroid. The photos taken by the students could be processed, made into slides and critiqued the same day. For me its the only way to teach photography. They shoot a roll of film, we run it through a small and then you have 36 slides to talk about. Without this film, you have to teach darkroom techniques before you can really teach how to use the camera. That slows down the process greatly. This process is revolutionizing the way we teach photography. Id never do it any other way, he said. I wanted them to photograph what it was like to be inside the Decker Lake facility. The students each reaction to being inhad a carcerated, which is what I was looking for. They could take pictures of anything within the facility, which for some people would seem like a limited area. How much art can you find in a walled, fenced facility? But they really learned to find interesting situations. One of the kids took a lot of layers and laypictures of fences ers of fences. Another took pictures artist-in-residen- .

The result is that each student has a portfolio representing a different about their temporary home. Some are of walls and fences, confinerepresenting a feeling of of diffaces of are others and ment, ferent dispositions, showing some of the warmth of relationships developed during the time incarcerated. These kids now have a solid, basic knowledge of photography. Weve also arranged scholarships for them to take further photography classes at the Art Center. We plan to continue the program this fall with more of the kids at Decker Lake, with me or someone else teaching. One of the students, John Knuth, who was recently released, spoke enthusiastically of his learning experience and said he planned to pursue a career in photography. The others were equally positive about the instruction and the chance to be creative. Youth in CusThe Decker Lake tody show opens Sunday at the Salt Lake Art Center, 20 S.
