Symposium: Photography as Model?

A Clark Symposium: Photography as Model? Clark Art Institute Symposium at Chicago, October 13 http://www.clarkart.edu/emails/enews/index.cfm?IID=276 The move from analog to digital imaging has prompted an avowed crisis in the study, display, and marketing of photography as art. Some twenty years after its initial popularization, digital photography is widely received in art-institutional circles as either the death or the rebirth of "classic" photographic practice. At this juncture it seems important to reflect on the models we currently have for discussing photographs as art.
