Forum on Contemporary Photography: Lines of Belonging

Описание: Organized in conjunction with the 40th anniversary of MoMA’s landmark New Photography series and the forthcoming Lines of Belonging exhibition, this Forum on Contemporary Photography convenes an international group of artists working in and out of four cities across the globe—Johannesburg, Kathmandu, Mexico City, and New Orleans—which have existed as centers of life, creativity, and communion for longer than the nation states in which they are presently situated. The presentations will be framed around a series of questions for the featured speakers, drawing out threads beyond geographic boundaries: How do historical narrative, memory, and cultural inheritance intersect in your work? How do you engage the idea of a border? Who do you make your pictures of, and who do you make your pictures for? How does your work contend with experiences that might be obscured or left aside?
