Zoe Leonard in conversation with Briony Fer, Professor of Art History, University College London.
Zoe Leonard (b.1961, USA) is nominated for the Deutsche Börse Photography Prize 2010 for her retrospective exhibition Zoe Leonard: Photographs, at the Pinakothek der Moderne, Munich (1 April – 5 July 2009), initiated by Fotomuseum Winterthur.
A chronicler of the overlooked, for the last 30 years Leonard has recorded urban landscapes, creating an eclectic and personal inventory of our material world.
Using a variety of traditional printing techniques and always including the distinct border of the negative, Leonard’s work is also a commentary on photography itself.
Through series such as Analogue (1998 – 2009) she tracks the disappearance of photographic film’s unique language at the onset of the digital age.
