Guest Lecture: Victoria Browne (14/02/17)
Victoria Browne’s artistic practice draws on formalism in painting and methods of post-production to explore post-digital print processes. The culture of use has previously relied on print’s imitating properties to reproduce, repeat and multiply the original as copy material. Today in an era of post-production, Browne's artistic research attempts to re-interpret this definition; to master the qualities innate in print as a medium of creative expression and of recontexualisation.
She is Associate Professor of Print and Drawing at the Kunsthøgskolen i Oslo and a current receipient of KUF's artistic research funding:

 - FAV SECTION OF THE ENTIRE GUEST LECTURE
Overall I thought the guest lecture was slightly boring as I dont have much interest in photobooks, however the New Horizons series was my favourite part of the lecture as the images were beautiful and specific photography I enjoy the most; landscapes.
