THIS VIDEO: Probably for most of last century, magazines and books were bought and consumed by huge audiences and photography was central to their success. By the late 1990s media had evolved to such an extent that there were very few strong publications left and the future of photography seemed vague and dispersed. In the early nineties, fine art galleries opened their doors to photography and for a time, art fairs were dominated by this medium. So, the question is, now, twenty or so years after this shift, is the greater photography community happy with where it has landed up. Are there other ways in which we can promote and develop photography and is the strongest work rising to the top. Apart from the art world, there has been a somewhat quieter initiative that has been gaining momentum. Over the past few decades an increasing amount of attention and funds have been directed towards expanding photographic archives. This development has in the main been spearheaded by universities, and other art-based institutions. Compared with the art world, this enterprise is the poor relative and it certainly doesn’t receive the same amount of hype. - but over time it might evolve into an alternative platform through which photography can be explored and developed - an interlinked archival network has the potential to become an alternative pathway for photographers or initially perhaps it is more likely that it will have a symbiotic relationship with the fine art gallery system. Cooperative. I am going to include inserts from an interview that I had with veteran photographer, curator and photographic archivist, Paul Weinberg.

ABOUT ME: The conversations focus on topics related to different aspects of photography including: art, documentary and photojournalism. The discussions explore the personal experiences of photographers and artists and how their work reflects both their internal and external landscape. During the past 30 years I have photographed in over 50 countries for magazines including National Geographic, Time, New York Times and Newsweek. I have held solo exhibitions in New York, London and Paris and my work is showcased in private and institutional art collections around the world.
