Beyond the Artist Print: The Photobook as a Complete Artwork

· · 100 State Street · · ·

Photographers Neal Rantoul, Mercedes Jelinek, Frances Jakubek, Michael Hintlian, Henry Horenstein and Richard Renaldi discuss the photobook as a complete artwork, in which sequence, placement, scale and materiality carry the meaning, and why the printed book matters when most pictures live on drives and phones. Rantoul has self-published numerous photobooks; the panel accompanies the museum's fall exhibition Neal Rantoul: A Life in Photographs.
