Fernell Franco Curatorial Talk: Sept 17


















Fernell Franco Curatorial Talk: Maria Iovino and Melissa Harris
Thursday, September 17, 6pm
Americas Society 680 Park Avenue, New York

Guest curator Maria Iovino aims to introduce viewers in the United States to Fernell Franco: a photographer who blurred the boundaries between art and photojournalism, and whose work disseminated the use of the medium into contemporary artistic practices in Colombia. For Iovino, Franco "reveals an unedited aspect of the abrupt and violent processes in which modernity was developed in Latin American countries and the periphery." The exhibition "Fernell Franco: Amarrados [Bound]" runs until December 12, 2009.
