About The Notion of Humanist Photography
The project took the form of two separate residencies held at the Kaunas Photography Gallery and the CNA during May and June. Led by Jim Goldberg in Kaunas, Emma Bowkett and Naoise O’Keeffe in Dudelange, the residencies provided a platform for an exchange of ideas and discussions about the artists’ work: how their work relates to today’s world and how contemporary photographers can still find meaningful and inventive ways to present what it means to be human. These themes were grown and developed from the discussions, with additional involvement from critics and curators, along with access to the collections and cultural networks of the Centre national de l’audiovisuel and the Kaunas Photography Gallery. As a result, the project culminated in the production of a trilingual publication.
