Event Description

www.darkroom2daylight.com

Photographer Harvey Wang will present his new film FROM DARKROOM TO  DAYLIGHT, which explores how the dramatic shift from film to digital has  affected photographers and their work. Wang began taking pictures as a  teenager. He was mid-career when the tools of his craft were made nearly  obsolete with the transition to digital, sending him on an exploration of  how others navigated the change. Wang interviewed more than 40 important photographers and prominent figures in the field, including Jerome Liebling, George Tice, David Goldblatt, Sally Mann, and Eugene Richards, as well as innovators Steven Sasson, who built the first digital camera while at Kodak, and Thomas Knoll, who along with his brother created Photoshop.

A Q & A and book signing of the recently published companion book, which  American Photo called "One of the 10 Best New Photography Books of Summer 2015," will follow the talk.
