With Different Eyes began as as a series of newspaper stories in
the late winter of 2020 when the coronavirus began to spread. The
author Paul Smart, a veteran Hudson Valley journalist of 30-plus
years, reported on the unfolding pandemic. A temporary lockdown,
New York on Pause, workers sent home. Schools closed &
playgrounds taped off. Vicious politics and then George Floyd was
murdered. Protests spread, met by an increasingly belligerent
institutional response. Violence spiraled as Trump doubled down on
his bid for reelection. Through it all, Smart looks deep into his
own bereavement for recently-passed parents, even as the lockdown
seemed to offer refuge as well as the hope for real change—an
epochal forbearance. In turn, Richard Kroehling, filmmaker,
installation artist, and the co-maker of With Different Eyes,
started painting, playing with images. He dove into his own stew of
loss, regret, and undiminished hopes, even as the national angst
deepened his visual take. He shared his evolving imagescape with
his longtime friend, who was simultaneously sharing his blog
entries. Thus this book arose out of friendship, which proves the
glue that makes this work cohere in spite of all.
