Another post in a continuing discussion (joining this post last week) about the future of photography.
Is photography over? Of course not. But a provocative title none the less (appropriated from SFMOMA) suggesting we think more deeply about what photography was, what it now is, and where it’s going. This video here is part 1 of 3 from a great symposium back in April 2010 sponsored by San Francisco Museum of Modern Art featuring Photographer Philip-Lorca diCorcia, Peter Galassi (MOMA), Vince Aletti (New Yorker), Jennifer Blessing (Guggenheim) and others. Interesting, insightful and evocative IMHO.
If you like this, parts 2 and 3 are avail here via I Heart Photography. More video, plus transcripts avail on the SFMOMA site here.









Nope. Photography’s still going strong and will be here for quite some time.
I’m out!!!!!! I’d rather watch chase videos of broncolors firing at a sick rate on a mountain, for the 50th time. adios panel of human ambien!!!!! i tried… maybe another day…………
my time stamps are proof of my attention span….”um, i’m from yale and um life is life unless life um um um a box of chocolate um yale um um, well um yale, i think um um my degree and um…” this is torture. I promise to try not to post again until i finish or um um um um um um i finish, either way. Chase, why weren’t you there to put these dolts in their place?
…about to close this thing. it better get better. jeez, this group alone would kill photography in a day. it’s on your blog so i guess if you suffered through it can’t be that awful, just slightly awful.
I was hoping, make that praying for the intro to start…”and last but not least, the three stooges… jarvis, hobby and mcnally.” it may have helped save here monotone intro. oh well, can’t win em all. just getting past the into now. God, I hope it gets some life besides , ” blah blah blah, yada yada yada and has an MFA in BS and is a fine art”…who gives a rats ass, get on with the show already. I’ll try and sit through it. wish me luck.
