Mike Sperlinger, curator and Assistant Director of LUX, talks to David Campany about the exhibition

About

To accompany the exhibition JVA are running a series of evening events. For thi final event Mike Sperlinger, curator and Assistant Director of LUX, talks to David Campany about the exhibition. This Must Be The Place is an exhibition on the theme of ‘place', with international projects using photography in a wide range of forms. Curated by writer and artist David Campany. Featuring works by: Camille Fallet, Mimi Mollica, Xavier Ribas, Eva Stenram, Lillian Wilkie, Tereza Zelenkova and David Campany. With projects from Dakar, Barcelona, Shanghai, Dresden, California and London, This Must Be the Place, part of the Jerwood Encounters series, highlights the importance of location for today's photography. As art reinvents itself as a context for experimental documentary practices, David Campany has brought together an international range of artists making work in a variety of forms: digital slideshows, films, composites, artists' books, installation, photographic sequences, image/text and imagery derived from the internet. Whether surveying a city for its specific character, unearthing a hidden past, speculating on the future, or looking at the effects of globalization on particular sites, This Must Be the Place is a timely assessment of how we understand locality, and a suggestive indication of the place of photography in contemporary art. Events are free though booking is recommended. Email jva@jerwoodspace.co.uk or telephone 0207 654 0171
