Ekaterina Degot, photo: J.J. Kucek<\/span><\/p>\n Talk by In the context of the exhibition Shirana Shahbazi<\/strong> “There is less and less photography (and photographers) in contemporary art exhibitions, but more and more photographs. The photograph is a lens through which we see the contemporary world, which comes to us always already reproduced.“<\/p>\n In her talk, Ekaterina Degot will explore some of the paradoxes inherent in the complex relations between photography and so-called contemporary art – seen through the eyes of a curator, writer, and university professor. She will talk about the complex role and purposes of the photographic image in visual cultures. Considering the differences of social contexts and cultural disciplines, she will develop perspectives for the future of the medium against the backdrop of our fragmented present.<\/p>\n Free admission Ekaterina Degot<\/strong> is the Director and Chief Curator of steirischer herbst–interdisciplinary festival for contemporary art in Graz, Austria.
