FlakPhoto: 100 Portraits – 100 Photographers

Selections from the FlakPhoto Archive

November 6-13th is Fotoweek DC, and as part of the event the city of Washington will be transformed into a nighttime gallery. Andy Adams, editor and publisher of FlakPhoto.com and Larissa Leclair, photography writer and curator, are presenting an exhibition drawn from the digital archive that has developed over four years of daily updates on Flak Photo. Celebrating the burgeoning online photo community that Flak represents, and in the new tradition of online curation, the two made their selections together via Skype. The work will be projected on the exterior of the Corcoran Gallery of Art nightly throughout the festival. “Contemporary photo culture is marked by a continuous flow of images online, and our aim is to take a moment to recognize some of the noteworthy photographs published in this ever-expanding archive over the past four years. In this context, projected several times larger than life, these portraits look back at us and embody a louder voice in the discourse of the gaze.” – Andy Adams & Larissa Leclair
