Confounding Expectations X: Photography in Context, Words Without Pictures

The Aperture Foundation, the Photography Department at Parsons The New School for Design, and the Vera List Center for Art and Politics present a new season of panel discussions focusing on photography. This event celebrates the launch of the innovative Los Angeles County Museum of Art book project Words Without Pictures, which documents roughly one year of conversations about the most pressing issues shaping contemporary photography.  Please join us for a panel discussion about Words Without Pictures and the contemporary landscape of artist books and photo publishing.

This lecture series is presented with generous support from the Kettering Family Foundation and the Henry Nias Foundation. The program is made possible in part by public funds from the New York State Council on the Arts and the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs.
