Stills: Centre for Photography

Four new talk and discussion events with Stills Research Associate, David Grinly.

Stills

Introducing each discussion with an idea from a novel by Dostoevsky, these evening discussions will offer participants a chance to consider their own approaches to photography as a method of thinking. David will outline how his own research contributes to his practice, combining challenging questions about the essences of the medium with (relatively…) approachable references to literature, music and film these talks are suitable for anyone who wants to reflect on the way they view and make photographs. There are 4 sessions in the course, starting Tuesday April 26. Your purchase of one ticket entitles you to attend all 4 lectures in the series._____________________April 26: Photographs from the House of the Dead.What is a photograph?
