By Maggie Cardelus
Many people are afraid of photographs. They don't quite know how to critically approach a photographic image, especially when it is in a contemporary art context. This one-hour interactive lecture aims to help you, as viewer, feel comfortable and confident reading a photographic image or photo-based contemporary artwork. Through lively participation and discussion, you will be asked to deconstruct the viewing process and use it to analyze a selection of photographic artworks, thinking about the art photograph in all its material, iconic, and process-intense complexity.
