At this two-day symposium, cosponsored by the Department of Art and Archaeology and the Art Museum in conjunction with the exhibition Clarence H. White and His World, renowned scholars will reconsider and complicate the stylistic goals, methods, influences, politics, and social networks of American photographers who identified as "pictorialists" and yet produced works ranging from book and magazine illustrations, commercial portraits, and fashion photos to Salon prints, and from sharp-focus silver bromides to atmospheric hand-manipulated gum prints. A reception in the Museum will follow on each evening. Registration is required.
