Curators Talk: The Lives of Documents—Photography as Project

A Talk by Bas Princen and Stefano Graziani curators of The Lives of Documents—Photography as Project (03.05.2023 to 03.03.2024) on their research process and on how this exhibition embraces the idea of the documentary as an embedded quality of photographic language. As the inaugural show introducing a long-term investigation on photography, the CCA begins a renewed exploration of the medium that aims to put forward new methodological approaches to the study of photography and image-making practices as research tools. This exhibition is an open reflection on how past and contemporary image-making practices serve as critical tools to read our built environment and design today’s world. How does one reconcile the author’s perception of reality within the photographic record? What is the life of photographs as visual arguments? https://www.cca.qc.ca/en/events/86030...
