Take A Seat is back!

This talk series explores the discourses, processes, and concerns of photographers and artists who work with the medium of photography. It aims to create a “safe space” that is brought to life by questions from the audience, with the goal of highlighting interdisciplinary and intersectional perspectives from the scene and its surrounding communities.

This spring, Take A Seat explores the concept of space: Where can artists work? For whom is space being made? These pressing questions are complemented by the Studio Visits, which introduce five artists who work and create in Cologne.

📍eye got space, Herwarthstraße 3, 50672 Cologne

What happens along the path of self-publishing? How can print and digital media support photographers in their work without taking up too much of their time? What stories of collaboration can be shared? What role does timing play in the publication of photographs? Photographers, curators, cultural professionals, and anyone interested in this topic are warmly invited. Afterward, the eye got space team invites you to wind down at their bar.

Moderator: G. Kühnhardt Alvarez

Photographs and video recordings will be taken during the event for public relations purposes.
