PHOTOGRAPHIC
FOLIO CRITIQUE PROGRAM
In response to feedback from past participants CCP has redesigned the Photographic Folio Critique program. Participants now attend on one day only and the course is offered on either a Sunday or Monday. These changes have also made it possible to decrease the course cost. We hope these changes will ensure the course is accessible to all interested participants.
PROGRAM OUTLINE
CCP presents a folio critique program for practicing artists, professional photographers and tertiary and post-graduate students. This program has been created to provide participants with the informed and supportive critical feedback that is difficult to acquire outside an academic environment.
Private appointments will be scheduled with industry professionals Naomi Cass (Director, Centre for Contemporary Photography) and Dr Les Walkling (photographic artist, educator and consultant).
Bookings are limited to 10 participants, so early registration is recommended.
