Jeff Wall and David Campany in Conversation at Central Saint Martins

Photographer Jeff Wall and curator David Campany discussed Wall's work at Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design in London on November 23, 2011, as part of the Sandra Blow Memorial Lecture. The event, organized by Afterall, followed the publication of Campany's book 'Jeff Wall: Picture for Women' in the One Work series. Wall, born in 1946 in Vancouver, is known for pioneering photography as a gallery art through backlit transparencies and large prints, contributing to pictorialism. Campany, a writer and Reader in Photography at the University of Westminster, co-curated 'Anonymes: Unnamed America in Photography and Film' at Le Bal, Paris. The lecture focused on a small selection of Wall's images, including his formative work 'Picture for Women' (1979). The event was fully booked, and an audio recording was made available.
