Stephen Shore Named Inaugural Recipient of the Chanel Chair in Photography at Jeu de Paume

Stephen Shore, Susan Weber Professor in the Arts and director of the Photography Program at Bard, will deliver a series of four lectures as the inaugural recipient of the Chanel Chair in Photography at Jeu de Paume, the Parisian museum of photography, film, and electronic media. From May 12 through May 16, Shore’s lectures will explore the nature of photography and how the formal attributes of a photograph translate the physical world into the still image. The series begins with what a photograph is on the technical side, and closes with an examination of how an audience cognitively understands and perceives the image.
