Conference Hall
The speaker returns to the 1970s to chart developments in art and art photography, along with his participation in the latter. Between then and now, tectonic changes have taken place with the shift from modernism to postmodernism and analog to digital.After the shock of Warhol and Rauschenberg, the speaker covers how women artists, such as Kruger, Rosler, Sherman, and Levine blazed a new path. In landscape, that most traditional of genres, he will discuss how Ansel Adams gave way to that of Robert Adams.To help illustrate these changes the speaker will show his work during this time: experimenting with various formats, making the switch from BW to color, and analog to digital—along with commensurate conceptual shifts. The talk concludes with his most recent finished project, a re-photographic project spanning forty years.
Dialogue and critique are important to the SPE mission.
