12 PERSPECTIVES: Round Tables with THIS PLACE photographers

25 Oct 2014, 11:00 AM

Through their research and residencies, which stretched over four years (2009 to 2013), Frédéric Brenner, Wendy Ewald, Martin Kollar, Josef Koudelka, Jungjin Lee, Gilles Peress, Fazal Sheikh, Stephen Shore, Rosalind Solomon, Thomas Struth, Jeff Wall, and Nick Waplington attempted to transcend myths and stereotypes to capture the complexity of Israel and the West Bank – its history, its geography, its inhabitants, its daily life – and the resonance it has for people around the world.

During 3 special round tables and a guided tour you will have a chance to find out more about their artistic endeavour, their experience and personal engagement with the region as well as the photographic narratives they have created for the THIS PLACE exhibition project.
