Photo reading room 2014

「當影像被閱讀、被思考、被消費、被討論、被展示、被遺忘的速度，遠遠被按快門的頻率拋離，我還是相信攝影可以作為對應生活的一種觀察和學習工具，一種思考和想像的方法。」 “The shutter is release and press, photos were taken without being read, being study, being discuss, being manifest, and finally being forgotten. I still believe photography could be a means of observing and learning tools; a way of thinking and seeing in daily life.”

關於「照片閱讀室」 對應於即時網上影像的交流方式，我們以不合時宜的方法，嘗試在展覽的會場擺放用來閱讀照片的長桌，在展覽期間的星期六日下午，舉辦四天的照片交流時段。 不合時宜是指除了拍攝以外，每人均要整理拍攝意念，寫成作品陳述作為閱讀起點，把攝製多時的照片整合成為作品集，編排影像的序列，選取打印沖曬材料，專業的裝裱展示。 所有桌上作品皆可以讓你拿在手中慢慢細看，唯一要求是穿上提供的白手套。如果你能帶同個人的攝影集作同場交流，交換；那當然是無任歡迎。 About Photo Reading Room In contrary with the way of communication norm in the Internet, we employ an exhausting way of display out photographs, putting them on a long table in the exhibition space. During the exhibition weekends, a total of four days of idea exchange session would be hold. Apart from the painstaking method of taking photos, everyone of us has to orchestrate their concept by writing a statement to being with, choose the photographs and arrange them into a series, pick the right paper, printing method and professional framing. Every work display on the desk could be pick up and examine by hand, all you need is to wear a pair of white gloves. You are mostly welcome if you could bring along your personal photo series to exchange thoughts with us. 開幕酒會 Opening Reception:  7/6/2014  6-8pm 展覽日期 Exhibition Period: 7-19/6/2014 開放時間 Opening Hours: 11am-7pm 照片閱讀室 Photo Reading Room:  7/6, 8/6, 14/6 & 15/6  2pm-6pm *歡迎帶備個人攝影集交流 Welcome to share your photo portfolios with us 展覽地點 Venue:  石硤尾白田街30號賽馬會創意藝術中心L0藝廊 L0 Gallery, JCCAC, 30 Pak Tin Street, Shek Kip Mei T: 3177 9159 E: info@lumenvisum.org W: www.lumenvisum.org
