As the gallery wall
expands to include more varied genres of photography, the
role of photojournalism in the art world comes into question.
Images of global conflict and social injustice are prevalent
in the market, but do patrons desire to view these photographs
or are these acts of social activism on the gallery’s part?
A panel of guest gallerists and photographers will examine
the difficulties and success stories of placing photojournalism
in this market.
