Visual artist, Ben Wood's lecture demonstration will center on 2 historic episodes in SF's history. First, a documentary/performance about British photographer, Eadweard Muybridge, via a magic lantern, will bring the audience back to the experimental period of the 1870s, when Muybridge captured the horse in motion, produced an unprecedented San Francisco panorama, and seemingly got away with murder.
The second focuses on a 10 year long project to reveal an 18th century mural hidden behind the altar at San Francisco de Asis.
Ben Wood's responder is Jack Fulton, a photographer who employs images & words. He has worked in the medium since 1968. He is a Photography Professor Emeritus of SFAI.
