with David Campany
Photography is often described as a story-telling medium, but is it? Are not the stillness and silence of photography an obstacle to narration? In making photographs as tableaux to be contemplated for their singularity, Jeff Wall has pursued an art with a particularly rich and complex relation to narrative. He has made pictures inspired by situations and stories (one of which is even titled ‘The Storyteller’), while accepting that pictures suspend, allowing the viewer to imagine, or to not imagine, a surrounding story.
The event will be held in English.
