We have partnered with Medium Photo to host a two-part workshop inspired by our special exhibition "Celia Álvarez Muñoz: Breaking the Binding." Working in photography allowed Álvarez Muñoz to play with perception by taking advantage of the viewer’s belief in photography as a documentary medium and calling attention to our capacity to misread images. Drawing on her practice, San Diego-based photographer Alan Nakkash invites participants to explore history and themes behind Conceptual Photography and conceptual photographic practice and techniques. Workshop space is limited to 20 participants.
