Join us for an interdisciplinary conversation with exhibiting artist Joan Fontcuberta led by Robert Howell, Rice University's Yasser El-Sayed Professor of Philosophy Department Chair. 

Internationally celebrated for his sharp, playful critiques of photography and authorship in the digital age, Joan Fontcuberta has been awarded the Hasselblad Award, Spain’s National Photography Prize, and the Royal Photographic Society’s Centenary Medal and has been exhibited at Museum of Modern Art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Art Institute of Chicago, Tate Modern, the Centre Pompidou, and the Museu Nacional d’Art de Catalunya, among others. 

The hour-long conversation will be followed by a reception. 

This program is made possible with support from the departments of Art History and Modern and Classical Languages, Literatures and Cultures
