Around Photography is a unique two-day conference organized by UCLA’s Department of Art that will bring together a range of prominent artists, filmmakers, critics and curators. Panel discussions will be moderated by UCLA faculty from the Departments of Art, Art History and Comparative Literature, to discuss the issue of “the photographic” from a perspective outside of traditional disciplinary boundaries. Each section will consist of artist presentations, short screenings and critical papers.
