Currently on view through July 24th at Jackson Fine Art.

Big thanks to our great presenters on Monday night: Laura Noel, Joel Silverman and Stephanie Roberts; as well as Emory Visual Arts, and all of you who came out for Greenhouse.

The goal of Greenhouse is to create a space for conversation and cross-pollination across the photography spectrum. We hope that the discussion will inspire, enlighten, engage, and promote questions as much as answers. We hope that Greenhouse can exist for all photographers; commercial, photojournalists, fine artists, and more!

We plan to have another edition of Greenhouse this fall. Thanks to Camille Felton for this pic of Stephanie and Joel, talking shop.

We’re looking forward to tonight’s (Monday) edition of ACP Greenhouse, at Emory’s Visual Arts Building. See you there!

Presenters include Laura Noel, on work in progress; Joel Silverman, on turning still photographs into motion; and Stephanie Roberts, on iPhoneography.

“Bringing together a diverse group of working photographers (and artists using photography), Greenhouse is an evening to share current projects, photographic issues, questions and concerns. With the hope to create a conversation that might capture what photographers talk about between exhibitions, shoots, artist’s talks, or projects, Greenhouse is an incubator of photographic ideas.”

You can RSVP for Greenhouse on Facebook. Greenhouse is free and open to the public.

Photojournalist Tim Hetherington’s film about the Korangal, “Restrepo” (a collaboration with journalist Sebastian Junger) opens this week on June 25th. [trailer] It’s unclear if it’s opening here in Atlanta, but we’ll let you know if/when it does!

Check out this recent interview with Hetherington.

“If you are interested in mass communication, then you have to stop thinking of yourself as a photographer. We live in a post-photographic world. If you are interested in photography, then you are interested in something — in terms of mass communication — that is past. I am interested in reaching as many people as possible.”

“We are all interested in the outside world. The heart of every deed is a selfish one. If you have to go out in the world and be effective, you have to make sure you are alive, healthy and strong. Agencies have to make sure that they are financially viable in order to go out and make commentary on the world that is useful to other people. My point about not being a photographer is that we can’t protect photography – forget photography – when we are interested in the authentic representation of things outside of ourselves.”

Great news about the release of “Oraien Catledge: Photographs” from University of Mississippi Press. See all the news and links on Creative Loafing. There’s also an exhibition due to open at Hartsfield Jackson tomorrow.
