prob­a­bly best known for her pho­to-con­cep­tu­al pub­li­ca­tion ‘the bow­ery in two inad­e­quate descrip­tive sys­tems’, martha rosler’s work has inves­ti­gat­ed the notions of pho­tog­ra­phy as authen­tic record­ing or doc­u­ment, and the rela­tion­ship between semi­otic cod­ing in the pho­to­graph­ic image and ver­bal com­mu­ni­ca­tions.

she is joined for the talk by art his­to­ri­an steve edwards and it will be held in the zilkha audi­to­ri­um, whitechapel gallery

this is like­ly to be pop­u­lar and pri­or book­ing is essen­tial.
