7:30 p.m., Gallery B
The photographers featured in the new book SHOOT (Rizzoli International Publications), from Nan Goldin to Dash Snow, are part of a burgeoning movement in photography that embraces the mundane image, reflecting an era in which ephemeral images increasingly define our lives. Ari Marcopoulos, whose photography is the subject of a current BAM exhibition, and Paul Schiek, featured in the museum’s recent collection-based exhibition Galaxy, will talk with SHOOT editor and author Ken Miller. They will consider questions the book poses, such as what separates a fine art photograph from the photographic overflow of the Internet and mass media. Their discussion will be followed by a book signing and further conversation with the audience.
