Call Lubin House for Gallery availability

Digital Transitions presents 21 photographs from the Light Work permanent collection that illustrate the influence of digital technology and changing processes on contemporary photography. The work, all created over the past 15 years, explores the direction some artists are taking in incorporating the new technology in their imagery.

The artists featured in the exhibition have participated in the Artist-in-Residence program, or are past Light Work Grant recipients. Light Work encourages participation in its programs by a variety of emerging and under-represented artists making the permanent collection an extensive and diverse archive of contemporary photography.

This exhibition was curated by Christopher Secor, a history of art major from Syracuse University's College of Visual and Performing Arts. He received a 2005 Robert B. Menschel Internship Award, created to provide support for undergraduate students who are working in the not-for-profit world, supplement student income, and make internships competitive with work in the for-profit sector. Other exhibition funding was provided by Syracuse University's U. Encounter Grant program.
