Artist Talk With Matt Eich as Part of 2011 New York Photo Festival and FotoVisura
FRIDAY, MAY 13, 2011 at 7pm
As a part of the 2011 New York Photo Festival and FotoVisura, Matt Eich will deliver an artist talk about the development of long-term projects and his approach to building relationships with the people he photographs while sharing two ongoing book-length bodies of work. Other topics to be discussed are methods for funding extensive documentary projects, collaboration and creative community.
The artist talk is connected to the work Eich will be showing in the festival, which is part of Enrico Bossan’s curation, “Hope”. This year’s main exhibitions, curated by Enrico Bossan and Elisabeth Biondi (on show at the 81 Front Street Storefront) are presented under the shared rubric PHOTOGRAPHY NOW: engaged, personal, and vital. They offer distinct perspectives on a shared theme: the state of documentary photography today.
Bossan’s show, entitled Hope, features the work of young photographers who, in his words, “neither provide a faithful representation of reality nor create an illusion, but who have impressed me with their ability to capture the essential aspects of life.” These artists include Olivia Arthur, Clemence de Limburg, Matt Eich, Simona Ghizzoni, Andrea Gjestvang, Sean Lee, Margo Ovcharenko, Andy Spyra,Mikhael Subotzky, Ali Taptik and Peter van Agtmael. Bossan grants that photography can portray the world at its bleakest, but suggests that it can also—and, in fact, must—remain oriented toward what lies ahead.
