Kaja Silverman—one of today’s most exciting critical thinkers in the field of photography, whose work informed the curatorial premise of The Blue Hour, the 2018 Feature Exhibition—gives a lecture based on her forthcoming book. The second in a three-volume reconceptualization of photography, The Three-Personed Picture, or the History of Photography, Part 2 (Stanford University Press, 2018) traces the gradual emergence of an image very different from those made during the first three decades of chemical photography: one that is pictorial in nature.
