This lecture is aimed at professional and amateur photographers, agents, gallerists and thinkers of all kind who want to challenge the notion of portraiture.
Through a slideshow of images picked at different periods of the history of art and through analizing real life situations of photographing people, we will explore the relationship between the artist and the sitter and try to understand the wide mystery of what makes a portrait.
In English and Japanese.
