cadre: the $10 artist grant

I thought you would be interested in this show I’m in at Wesleyan. It’s a show called “Framing and Being Framed,” curated by Nina Felshin, sort of about the role of the subject-photographer relationship. Other cool artist-photographers are in it (Wendy Ewald, Susan Meiselas, Alfredo Jaar, Emily Jacir, An-My Le, Koto Ezawa, and others). My installation is a collaboration with Sudden Flowers, the collective from Ethiopia with whom I have been working for 9 years. Members of the Ethiopian art collective designed the conceptual set-up of the show and I installed it, along with a video that they made.

Also, there is a conference around the themes of photography and historical interpretation on November 7-8: http://eyeofhistory.wesleyan.edu/conference/index.html.
