Don't miss the 20/20 Photo Festival Artist Talks at Unique Photo Philly, presented by The Halide Project, InLiquid, Amie Potsic Art Advisory, and The Print Center! Each artist talk will be 45 minutes.

10am - 11am  /  The Halide Project Presents: Dafna Talmor and Ella Morton
The Halide Project presents a conversation with their September artists Dafna Talmor and Ella Morton. They will discuss their work and approach to image-making featured in the exhibition "Fractured Lands".

11am - 12pm  /  InLiquid Presents: Lonnie Graham and Donald E. Camp
Lonnie Graham and Donald E. Camp will join us for an artist talk to provide insight on their photographic practice in relation to "Revelations: An Evolution of Introspection", the exhibition currently on view at the InLiquid Gallery. This exhibition, curated by Lonnie Graham, features work by photographers Donald E. Camp and Clarence Williams, and poet Ursula Rucker. The exhibition commemorates the 20th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, and the impact it had on New Orleans residents.

12pm - 1pm  /  Amie Potsic Art Advisory Presents: Tulu Bayar, Krista Svalbonas, Ada Trillo
Migration Visualized: Transformation of the Social Structure. This conversation explores how the photographers’ practices intersect through themes of migration, navigation, memory, and transformation through the lens of social and historical structures. Although their approaches vary - spanning printmaking, photography, new technologies, book arts, and participatory projects - they share a deep engagement with image-making and multidisciplinary methods that reimagine how histories, geographies, and identities are visualized.

1pm - 2pm  /  The Print Center Presents: Henry Horenstein
Henry Horenstein has had a long career as a photographer, filmmaker, and teacher. His work is collected and exhibited internationally, and he has published over 35 books, including several monographs of his own work such as Honky Tonk, Histories, Show, Animalia, Humans, Racing Days, Close Relations, and many others. Henry will speak about his new book; Miles and Miles of Texas. The book features a collection of nearly 100 photographs that Henry has taken all over the state, mostly between 2021-2024. Texas has been a continual source of inspiration for Henry, and these pictures reflect the people, places, music, and culture that make Texas so unique.
