SVA Theatre Presents Luc Sante's 'GENIUS OF THE SYSTEM' Tonight, 11/15

SVA's MFA Art Criticism and Writing Department presents LUC SANTE: The Genius of the System tonight, Nov 15 at 7PM at the SVA Theatre, 333 West 23rd Street - NYC. The event is free and open to the public.

Writer and critic LUC SANTE examines how photography is unlike other arts, as it is seldom entirely within the control of the artist and almost always represents a collaboration with chance. This keeps the meaning of the photograph in flux; it is changed by successive generations of viewers.

Sante sees photography as a broad continuum of which self-consciously artistic expression occupies only a small portion, but across which artistic realization can potentially be found at any point at any time.
