Critique Intensive with JUSTINE KURLAND

In this one-day workshop, JUSTINE KURLAND, known for her utopian photographs of American landscapes and their fringe communities, will lead you further toward a working practice based on a process of making, thinking, and remaking. Through individual critiques in a group setting, participants will spend the day discussing technique and philosophy, and learning to identify and trust one’s own vision. The goal of this workshop is to enhance the artist’s ability to produce work that is both unique and meaningful.

Critiques will be structured to stimulate a process of constructive reassessment of creative habits in light of critical issues. Utilizing a vast range of historical and contemporary photographic references, Justine will assist and guide photographers as they develop a critical framework around their own photographic practice that includes situating the medium of photography in relation to other fine art media, as well as film, video, and popular culture.

This workshop is open to all levels, to participants at all stages, whether you are just starting out or are eager for feedback on an existing body of work.
