Clifford Owens: Photographs With An Audience, a performance at PPAC Nov 8th & 9th

As part of our upcoming exhibition Make & Do, Philadelphia Photo Arts Center will be presenting the newest iteration of Clifford Owens’ project Photographs with an Audience. Working across the media of performance and photography, Owens’ practice is rooted in participation and audience engagement.

They are looking for participants to take part in this project. People from across the region are invited to join the artist in a large room. There they will respond to improvised situations, with Owens acting as ringleader and provocateur. The resulting photographic documentation will be displayed in the exhibition

EDGELANDS

This program with Knut Åsdam - Mellon Artist in Residence at the University of Pennsylvania - features recent works, a new film and two new site-specific installations. It explores architecture and cinema at the conjunction of the personal, the paranoiac, and the public. Knut Åsdam utilizes film, video, sound, photography and architecture to investigate the politics of space and the boundaries of subjectivity. He is centrally concerned with place and placelessness in all of its contemporary forms, as well as experimental narrative.
