Connie Imboden will teach the Fall Arts Institute "Digital Photography: Illusions" at Quartz Mountain, October 11 - 14. Connie is represented in the permanent collections of The Museum of Modern Art in New York and The Bibliothèque Nationales in Paris, as well as in many other public and private collections throughout Europe and the Americas. Imboden has exhibited her photographs in an extensive range of group and solo shows at galleries and museums throughout the United States, South America, Europe, and China. Imboden teaches and inspires colleagues and students alike in her quest to push the photographic medium to its highest level. She currently teaches at the Maryland Institute College of Art, where her experience as a photographer began. Imboden has served as an instructor at workshops around the world, including The Maine Photographic Workshops and the Rencontres Internationales de la Photographie in France.
If you attend Connie's workshop, you'll explore illusions. Illusions are fascinating, and working with illusions in photography can be a very interesting way of working with visual language. The power and danger of illusions is that we see them as absolute truth. We trust our eyes -- “I’ve seen it with my own eyes.” The class is about ways of exploring, discovering, developing, and utilizing the influence of illusions beyond mere tricks of seeing to compelling and poetic means of communication. You'll employ illusionistic techniques through assignments, discussions, and critiques. The course is open to anyone with a basic knowledge of their camera’s operations.
Connie taught photography at the 2011 Oklahoma Summer Arts Institute, and we are excited to welcome her back to Quartz Mountain! Click here to meet all the OFAI faculty, or learn more about the Fall Arts Institute.
