On Thursday 29 January at 7PM, AGITATE will be chatting online with internationally exhibited New York-based photographer Jordanna Kalman. Jordanna balances a tactile photographic practice - often altering images with physical or chemical processes and re-photographing them to construct new or multiple meanings - with effective digital curation and presentation of her tangible works using instagram in an innovative way. Kalman's work has also been widely exhibited internationally throughout her career in the UK, Europe, across the United States, and beyond.
Jordanna will be talking about Jordanna and the Masters of Photography - 'In the series Jordanna and the Masters of Photography, my photographs are seen through a window cut into photographs made by some of my favourite 'Master' Photographers. I wonder if my work will always be constrained by the male dominated history of photography, and forever be considered less than or unimportant because it wasn’t made with an 8x10 or an American poet’s (male of course) prose as inspiration or of New Topographics (which are like, so old by now) or uninteresting because the nudity isn’t sexual and therefore useless to a male viewer or irrelevant because I’m over 35 and have children.'
Please note that this event takes place online and is for AGITATE Members of all paid tiers.
