Les cours du Jeu de Paume
Chaire Chanel avec Stephen Shore
Du 12 au 16 mai 2025
Jeu de Paume - Paris
What is a photograph and how do we perceive it? This series of four lectures will explore the formal attributes of a photograph – how the world translated, transformed into a photograph. They will explore the formal tools of that transformation and how those tools implement and necessitate the imposition of structure. Finally, the lectures will describe the cognitive understanding of the image. This series begins with what a photograph is physical and formally and ends with how we ultimately receive the image.
A series of 4 lectures by Stephen Shore part of the photography chair CHANEL – Jeu de Paume.
