Other I

Event Name:	Other I
Description:	Viviane Sassen, WassinkLundgren, and more. Curated by Aaron Schuman. Faced with legitimate criticism during the latter half of the twentieth century, photography shifted from a medium often used to explore, explain and express the foreign/unfamiliar, to one used to examine, reveal and define oneself. In 1984, Andy Grundberg noted a shift occurring specifically within documentary practice, ‘…towards recording the “I” instead of the “Other”…’. This exhibition features several contemporary practitioners who cleverly redress this balance by turning direct encounters with the ‘Other’ into forms of self-exploration and subtle autobiography, equally emphasizing what's in front of the camera - ‘Other’ - and what's behind it - 'I'.
