Study Visit: Karen Knorr

P80340_10

Join Sharon on the 21 February at Tate Britain. The display brings together two series of work by the photographer Karen Knorr.
The series, Gentlemen and Belgravia both combine image and text. Gentlemen brings together photographs taken in gentlemen’s clubs in central London with text constructed out of speeches of parliament and the news; in doing Knorr explores patriarchal values in the upper middle classes. Belgravia highlights the aspirations and lifestyle of a privileged minority living in one of the most affluent parts of London.
As the Karen Knorr room is quite small we will spend a limited amount of time there and have informal discussions. After that we will find a space to discuss work in progress. Please bring an example of something you are working on and any questions you have about your studies. These times are invaluable and we welcome all questions and all levels.  It’s great to learn from one another so come ready to be inspired!
