ICP TALKS: Illustrated Talk with Stephen Wilkes, National Geographic Photographer THURSDAY, JULY 25 | 7 PM | $15 ($10 for Friends of SAC and ICP Members)
Stephen Wilkes has built an unprecedented body of work since opening his studio in New York City in 1983. He has a reputation as one of Americas most iconic photographers, widely recognized for his fine art, editorial and commercial work. Day to Night, Wilkes most defining project, began in 2009. These epic cityscapes and landscapes, portrayed from a fixed camera angle for up to 30 hours capture fleeting moments of humanity as light passes in front of his lens over the course of a full day. With a grant from the National Geographic Society, the project was extended to include Americas National Parks in celebration of their centennial anniversary and Bird Migration for the 2018 Year of the Bird. Day to Night: In the Field with Stephen Wilkes was exhibited at The National Geographic Museum in 2018. Day to Night will be published by TASCHEN as a monograph in 2019.
