ASN Event - Emergence - 29th October 2010

Dear friend,

We are pleased to invite you to our next ASN event coming up in October.
Please contact us if you are interested so we can add your name to our RSVP
list. We will be emailing out the place confirmations closer to the date
with the detailed information about the meeting place and time.

We will be meeting up for the 'Catching shadows' tour in V&A museum. The
Shadow Catchers will present the work of five international artists who, for
the last twenty years or more, have been challenging the assumption that a
camera is necessary to make a photograph. By casting shadows on light
sensitive paper or chemically manipulating its surface these artists
seemingly capture the presence of objects, figures or glowing light. The
results are exciting images often with surreal or abstract effects and
symbolic content. These camera-less techniques were explored at the dawn of
photography and have now been rediscovered by contemporary image makers. On
display will be unique and beautifully crafted works by Pierre Cordier,
Susan Derges, Adam Fuss, Garry Fabian Miller and Floris Neusüss.

As well as having an escorted tour of the exhibition you will also have the
opportunity to experience a V&A Friday Late event.  In celebration of the
Shadow Catchers: Camera-less Photography exhibition, on the 29th the V&A are
holding an evening of performance and installations, talks and film to
honour the silhouette and bring the processes behind camera-less photography
to life.
