LPV Show: 3.8 - Susan Meiselas & Kristen Lubben

For this episode, we were invited by the team at 10x10 Photobooks to record a show during their salon with Magnum photographer Susan Meiselas and newly appointed Executive Director of the Magnum Foundation Kristen Lubben. We would like to thank Russet Lederman, Olga Yatsketvich, Mathew Carson for the amazing opportunity as well as photobook collector extraordinaire David Solo for graciously hosting the event. A nice crowd of around 35 photobook lovers joined us for the event and recording, which made the show all that more enjoyable. With these two amazing guests, we could have recorded for hours. There was a lot to cover as you can imagine. In the first half of the show, we covered Susan’s books In History and Encounters with the Dani, which were both edited by Kristen. For the second half, we discussed the Magnum Foundation, as well as Negative Publicity: Artefacts of Extraordinary Rendition By Edmund Clark and Crofton Black (Thanks to Aperture Creative Director Lesley Martin for her comments on the book), Afghanistan by Larry Towell, as well as the Magnum Foundation Legacy Series. Recorded February 24th, 2016 at the 10x10 Photobook Salon in Brooklyn Heights.  For spreads from the photobooks and behind the scenes photos, visit our blog.
